According to OSHA regulations, employers are required to provide material safety data sheets (MSDS) to employees who are exposed to hazardous chemicals in the workplace. The MSDS must be provided in a language that each employee can understand. If an employer provides MSDS only in English and an employee who does not understand English is injured while on the job, the employer is considered to have violated OSHA regulations.
