Thank you!
You have accessed all relevant information for implementing the risk characterisation element of the scheme.
In order to make up the core of a cost effective industrial chemicals management scheme, five other key technical elements are needed:
- Information/data
- Hazard assessment
- Exposure assessment?
- Risk management
- Poison centres
In addition, the element Hazard data generation may be needed, which is particularly relevant for countries with a chemical manufacturing industry or significant import of chemcials and more developed industrial chemical management frameworks. Priorities for hazard data generation can be informed, for example, by consideration of the exposure potential and the information which is already available.
