 | CHEMICAL LABELLING AND EXPIRED CHEMICALS Many schools hold stockpiles of hazardous chemicals - over 10 years old, Many will have passed their expiry date. Many may not have an expiry date but due to their age may have degraded. Aged chemicals can become unstable. If you have hazardous chemicals that are over 10 years old. then you need to consider the following: Are they classified as a Hazardous Chemical under WHS/GHS? If yes, are they labelled in accordance with the GHS, Approved Criteria or other regulations (i.e. Poisons Schedule, Agvet requirements)? If No - then they need to disposed of via a EPA licensed contractor. If Yes - then they should be safe to keep. |
