Los sistemas de clasificación y comunicación de riesgos químicos son elementos clave de la gestión racional de los productos químicos. Para armonizar estos sistemas en todo el mundo, las Naciones Unidas adoptaron, en 2003, el Sistema Globalmente Armonizado de Clasificación y Etiquetado de Productos Químicos (SGA).
Chemical hazards’ classification and communication systems are key elements of the sound management of chemicals. To harmonise these systems worldwide, the United Nations adopted, in 2003, the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS). The GHS is an important tool for countries to develop or modify national programmes and to facilitate trade.
