In what language must the SDS be provided?

The Safety Data Sheet (SDS) must be provided in English because it is the primary language used in the United States regulatory framework for occupational safety and health. OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) mandates that MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheets), which have been replaced by SDS, must be available to all employees in a language they understand to ensure that necessary safety information about hazardous chemicals is communicated effectively.

While providing translations in other languages may be beneficial in a multilingual workplace, the SDS itself is required to be available in English to comply with OSHA standards. This requirement ensures that all workers can access critical safety information regarding the handling, storage, and emergency measures related to hazardous materials.
