Description
Summary:"The marketing of chemicals - especially those that could harm human health - has been regulated by REACH since 1 June 2007. Not that implementing this law will automatically mean better prevention of workplace chemical risks. Real progress, which includes outlawing the most toxic chemicals from workplaces, will not happen unless union representatives take ownership of the law. This booklet means to help them do that vital front-line job."
