GHS was designed to ensure that employees can identify and understand hazardous chemical substances in the workplace no matter where that workplace is located. It also gives a world wide recognized set of symbols and regulations reducing the risk of misunderstanding and accidents.
The purpose of MSDS and SDS is the same, but there are difference; namely
