CLP Training
30 May 2022
All round the world, it is accepted that the chemicals we use in the workplace can pose a hazard to the health of those at work and those affected by that work, as well as a danger to the environment.
The CLP system in the EU and GHS across the world is used to determine the hazards and communicate them to users.
This 2 day ‘competence level’ workshop will show how the CLP Regulation ((EC) No 1272/2008) is used to classify hazardous substances and mixtures, and produce labels. It will provide training to allow accurate classification from first principles, the communication of that classification – labels, SDS and allow candidates to be able to answer in-depth legislative questions to ensure compliance.
