Abstract

We have described an e-platform, with an IP camera for managing toxic and hazardous chemicals within an organization. The system allows: (1) a worker to understand the globally harmonized system (GHS) of classification and labeling of chemicals and printout the GHS-based safety data sheets with 16 sections of listed information, according to the GHS, (2) a director of a chemical laboratory to inventory hazardous chemicals and to track the education training history of workers, and (3) an organization safety manager to review the inventory and apply for government licenses. And, the system has an emergency system connected to IP-cameras. It provides online image of storage environments of hazardous chemicals. With this intelligent information system with several automatic functions, a safer environment for storage and usage of hazardous chemicals can be implemented in an organization.
