All sds’s use the same format, with information arranged in the same way. true or false?

The original material safety data sheets (MSDS) used in various industries, initially had a fairly loose standard. Certain types of information were required for all MSDS's, however, there was no standard format for all MSDS's. This resulted with MSDS's with data arranged in a variety of ways. There was also an issue with the technical language used in the MSDS which would often be health of science specific, but not all people using the MSDS work in those fields. Therefore, a new standard for these data sheets needed to be developed.

The OSHA has since adopted the globally harmonized system of classification and labeling of chemicals (GHS). The idea was that workers in any field in the world will be able to look at the information provided and understand the hazards present. The GHS has its own SDS (safety data sheet) which does have a standard format and understandable language for all fields.

Therefore, the answer above is TRUE.
