The Material Data Safety Sheet (MSDS)

An MSDS is provided by the supplier, and is designed to provide both workers
and emergency personnel with the proper procedures for handling or working

with a particular substance.

MSDSs include relevant information for the GMP warehouse on:

Health effects and first aid

Storage

Disposal

Spill/leak procedures

The MSDS is meant for:

Employees who may be exposed to hazards or who need to know the proper
methods of storage

Emergency responders (firefighters, hazardous material crews, emergency
medical technicians, emergency room personnel)

For safety responders, therefore, it is important for warehouse staff to be
cognizant of the materials coming into and going out of the warehouse.

Storing received materials

After receiving the material there are some essential GMP tasks that should be
undertaken before storage:

Remove the supplier's status labels.

Apply the company's identification and status labels.

Record the receipt of goods on company documentation.

Quarantine materials immediately after they have been accepted.

Check and process goods as soon as possible to help prevent material mix-
ups and damage.
