Standards JIS Z 7252: 2019 and JIS Z 7253: 2019
In Japan the GHS was originally implemented in 2009 and updated in 2014 to the GHS revision. 4, and in early 2019 to GHS revision 6, with the standards JIS Z 7252: 2019 (Classification of chemicals) and JIS Z 7253: 2019 (Communication of information on danger of chemicals – labeling and safety data sheets).
The transition period for companies to adapt to this standard is 3 years, ending on May 24, 2022.
