Know the symbol.
Understand its meaning.

Identify the HazCom pictograms without completing the practical lab. Study the nine GHS symbols, then match each one to its name and an example hazard meaning.

Eight under OSHA; nine shown here. OSHA’s Hazard Communication Standard uses eight pictograms as applicable to the chemical’s classification. The environment symbol is not mandatory under OSHA HCS. It is included because learners may encounter it. A product does not automatically require all eight.
Study the reference cards, or begin the separate identification activity.

Use the label and SDS together.

These are example hazard families, not an exhaustive classification table. The actual classification, hazard statements and pictogram precedence rules determine which symbols appear. A symbol does not identify a chemical, select a glove/respirator, prove compatible storage or show every possible hazard. No symbol does not mean no hazard. GHS/HazCom pictograms are also distinct from transport labels and NFPA/HMIS systems.

The symbol artwork is the existing unaltered OSHA public-domain artwork used in HC-001, displayed proportionally. No redraw, recoloring or generated substitute is used.
