question 4 of 12
when an end - use container is also a shipping package, such as a compressed gas cylinder, what must the employer do upon receipt?
choose an option below

• make sure it is dot compliant.
• contact osha to verify compliance with hazcom regulations.
• make sure it has a ghs label or place an alternative label on it.
• remove all of the labels and markings.

Explanation:

For end - use containers that are also shipping packages (like compressed gas cylinders), the employer must ensure proper labeling. The Globally Harmonized System (GHS) labeling requirements or using an alternative compliant label is necessary. DOT compliance is more about transportation regulations during shipping, not the employer's action on receipt. Contacting OSHA is not the standard first - step action here, and removing labels is incorrect as labels are important for hazard communication. So the correct action is to make sure it has a GHS label or place an alternative label on it.

Answer:

C. Make sure it has a GHS label or place an alternative label on it. (assuming the options are labeled A, B, C, D with the third option being C; if the original option numbering is different, adjust the identifier accordingly, but the text is "Make sure it has a GHS label or place an alternative label on it.")
