QR labels and the point of use

A QR label on a store, cabinet or container gives people the safety information at the point of use. Labels use the same A4 sticker sheets as asset labels.

How to print labels

1. 1Step 1: Open Chemicals, then QR labels.
2. 2Step 2: Tick the Storage places and Chemicals you want labels for (every storage place is ticked to start).
3. 3Step 3: Under Sheet, choose the sheet: 21, 24 or 65 labels to an A4 page.
4. 4Step 4: On a part-used sheet, enter Start at label (counting across, then down).
5. 5Step 5: Select Make the PDF and print it at 100% (actual size), not "fit to page".

What a scan shows

• Your own people, signed in: each chemical's signal word, pictograms, hazard statements, what to wear, first aid, spill and fire response, the emergency number on the SDS, and the SDS itself, with a link to open it in the register.
• Anyone else: only your organisation's name and a way to sign in, unless an administrator switches on the public SDS view (Chemicals settings). Then they see the same summary and the SDS, but never anyone's name, who uses a chemical, how much is kept, or your notes.
• Workers on your sites see the chemicals kept there, with first aid and the SDS, on their worker pass.
• Every scan page says: in an emergency, call 000.

Common questions

• How do I see what others see? Select What a scan shows on a chemical or a storage place.
• A label was copied or lost. An administrator selects New label code on the chemical or place: the old label stops working. Print the new one.
• Can my staff print labels? Only people who look after chemicals can print them. Everyone who can see the register can scan them.
