Workers need to accurately identify hazardous materials when UN numbers are ambiguous or insufficient, but current systems don't provide clear material identification.
Current hazardous material identification systems rely on UN numbers that can be ambiguous (e.g., UN 1202 covering both diesel fuel and diesel oil), forcing workers to manually verify proper names for compliance and safety.
