• Designated substances are only those 11 chemicals with specific regulations. They were chosen for designation due to the known hazards they cause in industry and workplaces. As they are designated, more specific controls apply to them. Hazardous chemicals are all other substances known to also have hazards yet their control of use is less prescriptive.
