Influences like "risk" and "impact" assessment which are both strong HS and E (legislative) subjects and are highly influential now were barely considered 30 years ago. Today assessments of risk and impact often affect product ion, deployment, measurement (instrumentation) and monitoring (techniques/case studies) Continue reading →

REACH and OSPARCOM Regulations are with us and two sessions of the symposium will focus on what the current regulations are and some of the thinking behind how legislation may develop in the future. Meeting REACH requirements can be very expensive for raw material producers, formulators and end-rs and speakers will show how companies can work in SIEFs and Consortia to minimize the cost of their businesses becoming REACH compliant.
