How it plays
Pick the pictogram
A jug of muriatic acid rolls in. Four pictograms below — tap the one on its label before it rolls off the belt.
Fix the label
A full GHS label with one of the six required elements wrong or missing. Find it — the right version and the rule come up.
Danger or Warning?
Read the hazard statements and call the signal word. Streaks build a combo up to ×5, and the belt speeds up as you go.
Rush is 60 seconds for the leaderboard — a fresh board every two weeks. Practice has no clock and explains every answer. Crew battle is for the safety meeting: 2–6 names, pass the phone, 30 seconds each.
Questions crews ask
Are the labels in the game accurate?
Every product carries the pictograms and signal word a typical U.S. safety data sheet gives it, allocated under Appendix C of 29 CFR 1910.1200. Where suppliers differ — a different concentration, or the optional environment pictogram — the game never marks that pictogram as a wrong answer. Your own container’s label and SDS are what count on site.
What are the six things a GHS label must have?
Under 29 CFR 1910.1200(f)(1): the product identifier, a signal word, hazard statements, pictograms, precautionary statements, and the name, U.S. address and U.S. phone number of the manufacturer, importer or other responsible party. “Fix the label” breaks one of them per card.
When is it Danger and when is it Warning?
Danger is for the more severe categories — a category 1 or 2 flammable liquid, skin corrosion, a carcinogen, an aspiration hazard. Warning is for the less severe ones — gases under pressure, irritation, a category 3 flammable liquid. If any hazard on the label takes Danger, Warning does not appear (Appendix C.2.1.1).
Why is there no environment pictogram on some labels?
The environment pictogram is part of the UN GHS, but OSHA’s Hazard Communication Standard does not require it — Appendix C uses eight symbols. Suppliers often print it anyway, so the game treats it as optional and says so.
Does playing count as HazCom training?
No — it is practice. 29 CFR 1910.1200(h) requires your employer to train you on the hazardous chemicals in your work area. Our GHS Hazard Communication course covers labels, safety data sheets, pictograms and signal words and issues a certificate.
Take it past the game
A game, not HazCom training: 29 CFR 1910.1200(h) requires training on the hazardous chemicals in your work area, from your employer. Pictograms and signal words follow Appendix C of that standard for a typical label of each product; always read the label and SDS of the container in front of you. Supplier names on the game’s labels are invented.
