Chemical risk consultancy

Every employer and employee has duty-of-care responsibilities to assess and manage the risks presented in the workplace. Working with chemical substances requires consideration of safety issues under industrial safety frameworks including, for example, the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations (COSHH), or equivalent legislation elsewhere.

Undertaking risk assessment is an essential part of complying with your regulatory obligations. Risk assessment is a pragmatic and systematic process to identify and manage potential health and safety hazards. The evaluation of risk should be made using the best available information so that appropriate control strategies can be developed and implemented to eliminate or reduce the risk.
