Can I use a controlled product if the information on the label or MSDS is incomplete?
No. Provincial OHS Regulation Section 5.4 prohibits the use of such products in the workplace. Such products are to be stored until proper label and MSDS are available. Some controlled products, such as consumer (restricted) products and registered pesticides, are exempt from MSDS requirements. In this case, the employer must be able to provide sufficient information for the safe use of the product (see next question).
