Hazardous Substances Information System Updated – December 2015

After a slight hiccup with the uploading process, last week Safe Work Australia has completed an update of the Hazardous Substances Information System (HSIS) database and the GHS Hazardous Chemical Information List (HCIL) to incorporate assessments made by the National Industrial Chemicals Notification and Assessment Scheme (NICNAS). These changes represent human health assessments made as part of tranches one through seven of the Inventory Multi-tiered Assessment and Prioritisation (IMAP) framework.

This update includes 289 new entries and 121 amendments to existing entries.
