Which item is NOT typically part of a HazCom program?

• A. Hazard classification labeling, Safety Data Sheets, and employee training on hazards and controls.
• B. Emergency exit signage and alarm testing procedures.
• C. Employee training on hazard controls.
• D. Hazard labeling and SDS.

Answer: (B)

Hazard communication focuses on making chemical hazards known to workers and giving them the information and training to protect themselves. The program includes clearly labeling chemical containers, maintaining Safety Data Sheets, and training employees on the hazards and how to control exposures, including training on hazard controls. The item describing emergency exit signage and alarm testing procedures is about safe evacuation and alarm verification, which falls under general safety and emergency preparedness rather than chemical hazard communication. Because of that, it isn’t typically part of a HazCom program.
