The European Commission, the driving force and executive body of the EU it is the institution where much the of the EU s day-to-day work is done.

The term binding occupational exposure limit value (BOELV) was introduced in article 3,4 of the chemical agents directive 98/24/EC. This type of Hmit is established in accordance to J 118 a of the European Treaty and is Hsted in the annex of this directive. According to the procedure for incorporation of limit values into national laws, the EU member states are required to adopt a national occupational exposure limit, which may be equal to or below the Hmit, but not higher than the BOELV. The procedure for establishing BOELV is quite complicated. Besides the toxicological properties, feasibility plays an important role. This includes technical aspects as well as considerations of the excess risk at estimated exposure levels. The acceptable-risk approach for genotoxic substances requires intense discussions on socio-economic factors between aU interested parties.

A different system applies to the creation oflegislationat EU level. The EU is based on a series of treaties between member states, which are comparable to constitutional law at national level.

In 2000, the European Commission issued a communication on the precautionary principle (EU 2000), in which it adopted a procedure for the application of this concept. The precautionary principle is not defined in the treaty, which prescribes it only once - to protect the environment. But in practice, its scope is much wider, beyond that of environmental policy, and, specifically where preliminary objective scientific evaluation, indicates that there are reasonable grounds for concern that the potentially dangerous effects on the environment, human, animal, or plant health may be inconsistent with the high level of protection chosen for the Community. The precautionary principle is implemented, for example, in the EU food law and also affects, among others, policies relating to consumer protection, trade and research, and technological development.
