The classification of chemicals also determines: what information is required on labels and safety data sheets whether certain provisions in work health and safety laws apply to their handling, use and storage in the workplace. The WHS Regulations implement a new system of hazard classification criteria for chemicals
The classification of toxic agents is based on their LD50 values (medial lethal dose). The LD50 is the average exposure to a single dose of a chemical agent which causes at least 50% of test subjects (rats, mice etc.) to die.
CHEMICAL CLASSIFICATION. Chemicals are classified into various hazard classifications in accordance with their physiochemical properties and health hazards.
