ESMA Academy Announces Brand New Industry Training Course on Chemical Regulation

28 June 2023: Most companies are impacted by chemical regulation. It can be difficult to navigate, and it is not always clear who is impacted and why. To this end, an online ESMA Academy course provides an overview of chemical regulation. The first online session takes place on October 12, 2023.

The programme will cover the registration and control of chemicals through REACH processes; occupational health, consumer exposure, environmental pollution and disasters; environmental protection legislation, sustainability and waste; specific legislation including GHS, CLP, REACH, the Stockholm Convention and Transport Regulation; the European Green Deal and the Chemical Strategy for Sustainability as well as post-Brexit UK regulation.

The first session will explore the background to chemical regulation and how it has taken shape over the years. It will review the key drivers and influences that have resulted in the current myriad of legislation impacting the chemical sector, in order to try and understand why company activities are impacted by it. Delegates will become familiar with the language of chemical regulation, understand the difference between hazard and risk, a Directive and a Regulation, and other key terms. We will consider the use of chemicals by consumers, professional users and workers, to understand aspects of the legislation that are focused on controlling exposure.

The course looks at the history of chemical regulation, how it evolved and why, focusing on the legislation that impacts the print sector and associated industries. Delegates achieve a sound understanding of sector-specific chemical regulation. It is of interest to a wide variety of employees and interested parties, including top-level management responsible for ensuring the legislation is complied with.

This course is presented by the ESMA Health, Safety and Environmental Protection Committee Chair, Elaine Campling. Participants will receive a certificate after attending all sessions. ESMA is the knowledge platform for industrial, functional and specialist printing technologies.
