Hazard pictograms form part of the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS). The pictograms are used for the labelling of containers and for workplace hazard warnings.

Hazard pictograms are one of the key elements for the labelling of containers under the GHS, along with:

1. An identification of the product 2. A signal word (either DANGER or WARNING) – where necessary 3. Hazard statements, indicating the nature and degree of the risks posed

by the product 4. Precautionary statements, indicating how the product should be handled

to minimize risks to the user (as well as to other people and the general environment)

5. The identity of the supplier (who might be a manufacturer or importer)

The pictograms are divided into three classes as follows: A. Physical hazards

Pictograms Usage

Unstable explosives Explosives, divisions 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4 Self-reactive substances and

The transport pictograms are the same as those recommended in the UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods, widely implemented in national regulations such as the U.S. Federal Hazardous Materials Transportation Law (49 U.S.C. 5101–5128) and D.O.T. regulations at 49 C.F.R. 100–185.
