International Chemical Safety Card

An International Chemical Safety Card (ICSC) is a document that provides essential information about a chemical substance’s hazards, safe handling, storage, and emergency measures. It is designed to help workers, safety professionals, and responders understand the risks associated with a chemical and how to manage it safely. ICSCs include details such as health effects, protective equipment, first aid procedures, and environmental precautions. They are developed by international organizations to promote consistent chemical safety information, enabling informed decision-making and reducing accidents in workplaces and the community.
