The chemical safety report

The REACH chemical safety report shall document the chemical safety assessment which shall be conducted for all substances subject to registration if the registrant manufactures or imports such a substance in quantities of 10 tonnes or more per year.

 The main element of the “exposure” part of the chemical safety report is the description of the manufacturer’s or importer’s exposure scenario(s) and the exposure scenario(s) recommended by the manufacturer or importer to be implemented for the identified use(s). The exposure scenarios contain a description of the risk management measures which the manufacturer or importer has implemented and recommends to be implemented by downstream users. If the substance is placed on the market, these exposure scenarios including the risk management measures shall be summarised in an annex to the safety data sheet.

Any manufacturer or importer required to conduct a chemical safety assessment shall keep his chemical safety report available and up to date.
