Technical products GHS (Globally Harmonised System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals) of the United Nations: The aim of the GHS is to ensure the international harmonisation of the regulations on classification and labelling systems for hazardous substances and dangerous goods. The GHS establishes the standards for evaluating the risks posed by chemicals (classification) and provides a common basis for communicating these risks (labelling, safety data sheet). REACH (Registration, Evaluation and Authorisation of Chemicals) is the European Chemicals Regulation concerning the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemical, which entered into force on 1 June 2007. The aim is to ensure a high level of protection for human health and the environment. REACH places the responsibility for chemicals on the manufacturer, importers and downstream users, who must ensure that chemicals that are manufactured and placed on the market are used safely. The implementation of REACH: a) Registration Chemical substances may only be manufactured and placed on the market in the EU if they are registered under REACH. Registration must take place by indicating the intended use as well as other information (e.g. on the toxicity) to enable the registered substance to be assessed. Most information from the registration data is publicly available and can be viewed on the ECHA’s (European Chemicals Agency) homepage (https://echa.europa.eu/en/). b) Evaluation The individual registrations are received by the ECHA, which then evaluates their conformity. The member states of the EU assess selected substances in order to clarify an initial concern regarding human health or the environment. The authorities and the scientific committees of the ECHA assess whether the risks of substances can be managed. The authorities can ban hazardous substances if their risks cannot be managed. A decision may also be reached to restrict use or to require prior authorisation before using a substance. c) Authorisation and restriction Selected substances can be identified as substances “of very high concern”. In this case, the substance must meet one or more of the following criteria: • Carcinogenic, mutagenic or toxic to reproduction, or • Toxic and persistent in the environment and can accumulate in organisms, or • Very persistent in the environment and can accumulate in large amounts in organisms, or • Similar concerning properties (e.g. hormonal effect).
