Seasonal and temporary employees who are not exposed to hazardous chemicals in their work area need not be trained.
(2) Employers shall maintain any material safety data sheets that are received with incoming shipments of hazardous chemicals, and ensure that they are accessible to agricultural employees upon request.
(3) Employers shall ensure that labels on incoming containers of hazardous chemicals are not removed or defaced.
