WHMIS 2015 (GHS) replaces WHMIS 1988.

GHS stands for the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals. GHS is a system that defines and classifies the hazards of chemical products, and communicates health and safety information on labels and material safety data sheets (called Safety Data Sheets, or SDSs, in GHS).

During the transition period, both 1988 and 2015 WHMIS ( Harmonized WHMIS GHS) coexist.
