Yes. Under WHS Regulation 346, a PCBU must keep a register of every hazardous chemical used, handled or stored at the workplace, with a current Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for each. The register must be readily accessible to anyone who works with the chemicals.
At minimum: the product name, the supplier, the GHS hazard classification, the location and quantity stored, and the current SDS. Most state regulators also expect a brief risk assessment and emergency-response info (spill kit, eyewash, Poisons Info Centre).
At least annually, and whenever a new chemical is introduced, an SDS is updated, or storage location changes. Most importantly: every SDS must be current (within 5 years of the issue date) and accessible.
Yes. WHS Regulations are harmonised nationally — the register format is consistent across every state except WA (which retains a similar duty under different regulation references). The template covers what every state inspector looks for.
You may need a manifest (a separate document submitted to WHS regulators), not just a register. Check WHS Reg 347 and your state's threshold quantities — these vary by chemical class.
