Employee Right-to-Know Laws
Employee Right-to-Know Laws ensure that workers are informed about hazardous substances they may encounter at their jobs. These laws require employers to provide information about chemicals, including their risks and safety measures. This includes labeling hazardous materials, maintaining safety data sheets, and training employees on how to handle chemicals safely. The goal is to protect employees by promoting awareness and safe practices in the workplace, allowing them to understand the potential dangers associated with their work environment and to take appropriate precautions.
