When security guards check MSDS they should note that the sheets are to be updated every:

3 years
4 years
5 years
6 years

The correct answer is: 3 years

The Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS), now known as Safety Data Sheets (SDS) under the globally harmonized system, provide comprehensive information about a substance or mixture for its management at the workplace. As per the regulations, in Ontario, these sheets need to be updated every 3 years. This is to ensure the most accurate, up-to-date information on the potential hazards, safety precautions, and emergency response measures related to the substance or mixture is available to those handling these materials, including security guards. In fast-evolving areas such as chemical safety, a period longer than 3 years could lead to outdated safety data, which could put personnel at risk. Hence, the security guards verifying the MSDS should take note of the 3 years update requirement to ensure workplace safety.
