Comments on the proposed revi- sions are due April 19, 2021. The updates would allow the HCS to coordinate better with the GHS and also address speci c issues that OSHA, manufactur- ers, importers, and employers have encountered since 2012. HCS de nitions will be revised to account for changes made else- where. Updated de nitions will include those for "exposure or exposed," "hazardous chemicals," and "physical hazard." New addi- tional terms and their de nitions will include, "bulk shipment," "combustible dust," "gas," "liquid," "solid," "immediate outer pack- age," "physician or other licensed health care professional (PLHCP)," and "released-for-shipment." The most notable new de nition will be for combustible dust, which OSHA proposes to de ne as " nely divided solid particles of a sub- stance or mixture that are liable to catch re or explode on ignition when dispersed in air or other oxidizing media." OSHA has also proposed to amend the required hazard statement for combustible dust in Appendix B of the HCS.
