Determine if OSHA's Beryllium Standard is applicable to your operations.
Are your beryllium-containing products defined as articles under OSHA’s Hazard Communication standard (HCS)? (§ 1910.1200). Yes No
Article means a manufactured item other than a fluid or particle: (i) which is formed to a specific shape or design during manufacture; (ii) which has end use function(s) dependent in whole or in part upon its shape or design during end use; and (iii) which under normal conditions of use does not release more than very small quantities, e.g., minute or trace amounts of a hazardous chemical and does not pose a physical hazard or health risk to employees.
