KMK’s Long-Term
Compliance Program

KMK's long-term compliance program provides our customers with a cost effective means to ensure the documents we have authored for them are maintained at the highest level of compliance possible for 3 years minimum.

This service can be scheduled to take place once a year or during a scheduled time period. We monitor the documents at the substance level and ensure any changes to the regulations by country are made to the documents in a timely manner.

Your documents are always in compliance.

 

Long-Term Compliance

Regulatory managers and plant workers rely on (M)SDSs to take decisions which can make a difference on their health, safety, environment and sometimes, their lives.

Real-time compliance is an obligation for all (M)SDSs and labels, this feature is requested by all EHS and Environmental regulations.

Real-time compliance can be achieved through our long-term compliance program. From time to time, MSDSs must be updated in order to comply with new regulations, new classifications, new substance information and specific country requirements.

For example:

  • In 2009, the UN has published the 16th revised edition of its Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods. Was Section 14 of your (M)SDSs authored using a previous edition? If affirmative, a revision is recommended.
  • Some countries, like Canada, require MSDS revisions after 3 years. What is the date of the latest revision of your Canadian MSDSs?
  • All (M)SDSs have to be updated to the GHS in each of the countries where the GHS is being implemented, i.e. at this time: Japan, Korea, New-Zealand and Thailand. Do your SDSs for these countries comply with the GHS? Your labels?
  • Since June 2007, REACH requires new information on all EU Safety Data Sheets shipped to any of the 27 Member States. Are you aware of these modifications?
  • By December 2010, the European Union will require that all substances SDSs comply with the CLP/GHS – 2015 for mixtures. Will you be ready for 2010? GHS SMARt© is your 1st step to GHS compliance.

In other words, real-time and long-term compliance are the two sides of the same coin.

Can you afford the burden and do you have the regulatory competencies to do-it-yourself? KMK can assist. Upon request, we provide long-term compliance plans featuring professional, automated, secure and real-time MSDS and label revision and updating, including the following services:

  • Continuous regulatory monitoring for amendments in chemical classification and global regulations.
  • Real time (M)SDS/label revision, validation and update to keep up with these modifications and/or when requested by local regulations.
  • Minor modifications: omponents(if this does not force a classification change), formulation adjustments (if this does not force a classification change), address change, brand name, product use, corporate information, will be made on scheduled maintenance periods otherwise a small fee will apply per document for minor changes requested outside the scheduled period.
