I completed my annual chemical inventory and there was a significant lapse in Policy resulting in a majority of chemicals not being on the chemical registrar or having an SDS. 

 

I've downloaded all the SDS that I need. If possible I'd prefer to avoid printing each SDS, was wondering if it would be acceptable to only have digital SDS files instead of printed ones?

I think a more appropriate question is whether the SDS's would remain accessible from anywhere on-site in the event of power-outage, server failure, or other technology disruption. From an audit perspective, the primary concern with a fully digital system would be the existence of a documented and effective backup plan to ensure continued access for all.

If I'd a worker down on the floor at the location of use/storage will I know how to readily get to this information?  

 

We use both a screen with pics of each item - push the photo and get the sheet and also have the sheets in laminated sheet format at each location of storage/mixture and same system stores digital copies.
