Many facilities have been struggling with their in-house labeling to meet OSHA's Global Harmonized Standard (GHS) labeling.  I have written on this topic too many times to mention since 2015,  but one thing that I am finding and I can not explain is how compressed gas manufacturers have not revised their "shipped container" labels to comply with the new GHS requirements.  For example, what do we see missing on this label... (look VERY close)

NOTE:  I have marked out the manufacturer's name and address as this is NOT about them but the entire industry sector.

NOTE: this label is a tad faded, but that did NOT impact the deficiency I will point out.

 

Keep in mind this is a "shipped container" and OSHA requires "shipped containers" to meet some very specific labeling...
