Practical Implementation of CLP and GHS in the Agrochemical, REACH and Biocide Industries

As stated on the European Commission website, ‘‘CLP is the Regulation on classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures. This Regulation aligns previous EU legislation on classification, labelling and packaging of chemicals to the GHS (Globally Harmonised System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals). Its main objectives are to facilitate international trade in chemicals and to maintain the existing level of protection of human health and environment. The GHS is a United Nations system to identify hazardous chemicals and to inform users about these hazards through standard symbols and phrases on the packaging labels and through safety data sheets (SDS).’’

This workshop will address key challenges relating to CLP and GHS. The day will be divided into 4 sessions:

Session 1: Overview of GHS and CLPRobin Foster, International Chemicals Unit Health and Safety Executive HSE, UKSession 2: Addressing Essential Topics Related to CLP and SDSDr Roger Van der Linden, Consulant Product Stewardship and REACH, Borelis Group, BelgiumSession 3: Industry Perspective: Classification and Labelling of Active Substances in PPPs and Interaction with 1107 Phil Todd, Global Distribution Safety and Hazard Communication Manager, Syngenta, UK

Session 4: Member State Perspective: Classification and Labeling of Mixtures Post 1 June 2015Mariusz Godala, Chief Specialist, Department for Dangerous Substances and Mixtures, Bureau for Chemical Substances, Poland Session 5: Interactive Discussion with the Audience and Key Take-Home Messages

Strategies and Tools for Chemical Communication Management in the Supply Chain

Register 18.15 • Start 18.30 • Finish 20.00This evening seminar is directed to those interested in knowing more about how and what to communicate to enable safe substitution of hazardous chemicals. We will go through different aspects of supply chain communication from the view point of an NGO familiar with cooperation with proactive and responsible business actors. REACH places an immediate responsibility on companies to know the actual content of their products following an update of the candidate list and we will show how to best stay ahead of the regulatory curve. Substitution taking place under severe time pressure will not succeed, careful preparation is required as well as ensuring all the relevant aspects are covered.We will talk through the tools ChemSec provide in order to lower the bar for companies to start substituting in a safe way and explore the options available to different actors depending on their place in the supply chain. We will also discuss the need for proper two-way communication beyond the sending of restricted substance lists (RSLs) and receiving of Safety data sheets (SDSs) in return.• Why effective communication is integral when dealing with REACH• What strategies should be implemented in the supply chain to ensure REACH compliance and safe substitution• Utilising available tools to facilitate communication and SVHC complianceWorkshop Leader: Jerker Ligthart, Senior Chemicals Advisor, ChemSec, Sweden

FREE with a 4 Day
