| Description | In the major developed countries, laws to regulate chemicals used as drugs, food additives and pesticides were developed first due to public health and environmental concerns of these uses. Eventually these laws required pre-market clearances of new chemicals for these uses. As time went on, laws were implemented so that virtually all chemicals had some level of regulation. Chapters 10 and 11 deal with the laws that affect the industrial chemical industry. This chapter deals with the so-called chemical control laws, which affect the introduction of new chemicals into commerce as well as attempt to manage newly discovered risks of existing chemicals. The next chapter deals with laws concerning worker safety, which govern the communication of the hazard information and establish safe exposure levels for chemicals. This chapter includes additions since the last version of this publication based on new legislation and programs, and the format of the chapter has been retained to emphasize the historical development of the regulations and requirements over time. Key updates include major legislation changes since the last edition of this book. Book Name: Regulatory Toxicology |
