How do you ensure Quality?
We have two step quality audits ingrained in our delivery processes in order to ensure a great
customer experience viz.:
1. Quality Control – Our quality inspectors conducting quality checks on the deliverables before we hand over the artefacts to your customers.
2. Quality Assurance – The delivery process in itself has quality gates where certain parameters are defined for the developers/team members to perform checks at regular intervals before moving onto
the next steps.

What is a Safety Data Sheet (SDS)?
An SDS is a document that provides workers with procedures for safely handling or working with a
particular substance and detailed information about a hazardous chemical, including:
The identity of the chemical product and its ingredients,
The hazards of the chemical including health hazards, physical hazards, and environmental
hazards,
Physical properties of the chemical, like boiling point, flash point and incompatibilities with other
chemicals,
Workplace exposure standards for airborne contaminants,
Safe handling and storage procedures for the chemical,
What to do in the event of an emergency or spill,
First aid information, and
Transport information.
What Information is on SDS?
The SDS follows a 16 section format which is internationally agreed and for substances especially, the
SDS should be followed with an Annex which contains the exposure scenarios of this particular
substance. The 16 sections are:
Section 1: Identification of the substance/mixture and of the company/undertaking
Section 2: Hazards identification
Section 3: Composition/information on ingredients
Section 4: First aid measures
Section 5: Firefighting measures
Section 6: Accidental release measure
Section 7: Handling and storage
Section 8: Exposure controls/personal protection
Section 9: Physical and chemical properties
Section 10: Stability and reactivity
Section 11: Toxicological information
Section 12: Ecological information
Section 13: Disposal considerations
Section 14: Transport information
Section 15: Regulatory information
Section 16: Other information
What is SDS used for?
SDS Contains information on chemical compounds and mixtures as well chemicals themselves. They
contain data regarding the chemicals, including the boiling point, melting point, and flash point. They
are able to inform the reader of the possible health effects involved, the toxicity of the material, how
first aid should be administered, what kind of protective equipment should be used, how to treat the
material, and storage and disposal procedures. Basically, the safety data sheet contains all the
information that workers and emergency personnel require.
Where do i get an SDS form?
The supplier of a hazardous chemical must provide, free of charge, a copy of the manufacturer or
importer’s SDS with the chemical on first supply to the workplace or when asked to do so. If the supplier
has not provided you with an SDS for the chemical you are using, you should ask for it before working
with that chemical. If the supplier will not provide you with an SDS after being asked for it, then contact
your local work health and safety (WHS) regulator.
