What are the legal implications of improper labelling in toxicology?
Improper labelling can lead to severe legal consequences, including fines, penalties, and liabilities for non-compliance with regulatory bodies such as OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) or the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency). In cases of injury or environmental damage due to incorrect labelling, organizations may face lawsuits and reputational harm. Therefore, adhering to proper labelling standards is not just a safety measure but a legal requirement.
