- The SDS is a basic hazard communication tool that details chemical and physical dangers, safety procedures, and emergency response techniques.
- Employees who may be occupationally exposed to a hazard at work
- Employers who need to know the proper methods for storage, etc.
- Emergency responders, such as firefighters, hazardous material crews, emergency medical technicians, and emergency room personnel
