The law requires employers to control chemical substances that are hazardous to health. Effective chemical substance safety management includes a range of measures, including: 

1. Hazard identification: Identify the hazards associated with each chemical substance, including physical, chemical, and toxicological properties. 
2. Risk assessment: A risk assessment is carried out to evaluate the likelihood and severity of harm that could result from exposure to the chemical substance. 
3. Risk control: Appropriate risk control measures are put in place to minimize or eliminate the risks associated with the chemical substance. 
4. Communication: Ensure that relevant information is shared with all those who may be affected by the chemical substance, including employees, contractors, and emergency responders. 
5. Training and education: Everyone who works with chemical substances should be aware of the associated hazards and risks and know how to handle the substance safely. 
6. Monitoring and review: Ensure that the management system remains effective and current, reflecting changes in technology, legislation, and best practice. 

Effective chemical substance safety management is a critical aspect of ensuring workplace safety and environmental protection.
