Masterclass
February 22 2024
A structured assessment method is necessary to get a grip on the health risks of hazardous substances in your company. The strategy that was recently developed in Europe and laid down in the European standard EN 689: 2018 is an excellent starting point for this, also for companies outside Europe. This masterclass provides a concise and practical overview of this assessment method, examines possible issues during implementation and shares practical experiences.
This masterclass is the first of the Chemrade Masterclasses Chemical Risk Assessment. These masterclasses have been developed for Chemrade customers, partners and close relations who want to deepen and update their knowledge of Chemical Risk Assessment.
