The Importance of Chemical Risk Assessments
Chemical risk assessments are the process of identifying, assessing, and mitigating risks associated with the use of chemicals in your organisation. By reviewing safety data sheets (SDS) and getting to know the properties of each substance, we can identify risks like reactivity, toxicity, and flammability. Because of this, we can foresee potential accidents, fires, or spills, giving us the time to implement proactive measures.
In addition, chemical risk assessments contribute to the workplace safety culture. When employees understand the potentially dangerous chemicals they work with and the implemented control measures, they become active participants in ensuring their own well-being. This leads to safer work practices, fewer accidents, and improved morale.
