In our most recent feature available in the new version of EH&S Assistant, comes a quicker and more organized way to document and keep track of all the components associated with a chemical kit.
We define chemical kits as a kit that is made up of multiple individual components (i.e. chemicals, mixtures, water) put together for a specific purpose or need. Kits are usually single-use and only have the required amount of the components needed.
We created this new feature because we saw a need in handling kits in a smarter, safer way. As you know, each component in a kit has its own Health Codes, Precautionary Statements, a DOT Classification and Safety Regulations. Therefore, it was crucial for us to create a way in which users can treat each chemical like its own, but still referring back in relation to a specific kit. This makes submitting a waste pickup request less tedious, but more systematic and user-friendly for our clients. A feature like this has never been done before.
Let's see how it works:
After you log into your EH&S Assistant, click on Inventory, then Chemical Catalog:
