Poison centres finish

Thank you!

You have accessed all relevant information for implementing the poison centres 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 characterisation
  • Risk management

In addition, the Hazard data generation element may be needed, which is particularly relevant for countries with a chemical manufacturing industry or significant import of chemicals 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.
