Productivity, safety and

Quality Management system priorities to consider are management responsibility, quality system principles, auditing, contract review, design control, corrective action, document control, quality records, training, product safety and liability, and statistical techniques, because these are critical aspects of the Quality Management system where Xmple Inc. already has some systems in place. 

Handling, storage, packaging, and delivery After-sales servicing Product safety and liability Purchaser supplied equipment These requirements may not apply to all chemical manufacturing facilities. Where they are required, they are most likely the partial responsibility of the marketing function and you should work with them to establish relevant priorities. 

The focus of this element is on the enhancement of product safety and the minimization of product liability through the use of standards, initial tests and evaluations, human factors considerations, and subsequent analyses of problems. For ESH/PSM, safety might be viewed more broadly as safety, health, and environmental protection. 

In 1988 producers of basic industrial chemicals, plastics, and fibers in tlie United States increased tlieir sales at least 10% to about 90 billion (exclusive of foreign subsidiaries) primarily as a result of increased demand at home and abroad. Along witli die increase of chemical production safety and accident prevendon liave become more critical and essential. Such dramadc releases of toxic chemicals as diose tliat occurred in Bhopal and at Three Mile Island have lieightened publie eoneem for die integrity of process facilities dial liandle liazardous materials. 

Generic Application (based on reference product Safety and Efficacy data)... 

The EU will accept applications without supporting pre-clinical and clinical data, if it can be demonstrated that the active substances have been in well-established medical use in the Community for at least 10 years, with recognised efficacy and an acceptable level of safety. This route would be appropriate for many common over-the-counter (OTC) products. Safety and efficacy is supported by providing copies of published scientific literature as part of the submission that is, the submission relies on safety and efficacy data available in the public domain, as opposed to confidential data from authorised applications that is the cornerstone of generic applications. 

Pig production today faces the difficult task of effectively meeting emerging consumer concerns while remaining competitive in its major target markets. Providing a high sensorial quality of pork and meeting consumer concerns about product safety and animal welfare are identified as key attention points for future livestock production. The relevance of these issues pertains to... 

This study assesses the potential impact of the changes in the soil condition on agricultural product safety and examines the transportation of heavy metals from soils to rice. 

To understand how product safety and toxicity data are used and how the data generation process might be changed to better meet the product safety assessment... 

It is the responsibility of the Central Safety Testing Lab staff to scan test results into the database and to serve as database administrators. 2. It is the responsibility of the Product Safety and Product Regulatory Programs to develop MSDSs and Workplace Precaution Statements. 3. It is the responsibility of the project/process leader to ensure the Survey Sheets have been completed, and that MSDSs or workplace precaution statements have been requested. ... 

In concepts for new products the performance, product safety, and product economy criteria are equally important. They are taken into account already when the raw material base for a new industrial product development is defined. Here, renewable resources have often been shown to have advantages compared with fossil feedstock. Over the years it has been demonstrated that the use of vegetable fats and oils in oleochemistry allows the development of competitive, powerful products that are both consumer- and environmentally-friendly. Products from recent developments fit with this requirement profile. 

Many thousands of pharmaceutical substances are routinely manufactured by the pharmaceutical industry. Two of the most important determinants of final product safety and efficacy are (a) the standard of raw materials used in the manufacturing process and (b) the standard (i.e. specification) to which the final product is manufactured. Most pharmaceutical substances are... 

Additional impurities, such as glucagon, somatostatin, pancreatic polypeptide and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide, are present in most conventional insulin preparations at lower levels. The presence of such contaminants can impact upon product safety and efficacy in a number of ways.

Special grades of polystyrene include impact polystyrene modified with ignition-resistant chemical additives. These were developed because of increased emphasis on product safety and used in many electrical and electronic appliances. The addition of flame-retardant chemicals docs not make the polymer noncombustible, but increases its resistance to ignition and decreases the rate of burning when exposed to a minor fire source. 

A Reactive Chemical Committee in each division, site, location, or organization coordinates all reactive chemicals functions at the location. The committee consists of qualified technical personnel including, where possible, representatives from research, engineering, production, safety and loss prevention, testing and any other appropriate function. The responsibilities of the committee are to ... 

UL s consumer advisory council was formed to advise LJL in establishing levels of safety for consumer products to provide UL with additional user field experience and failure information in the field of product safety, and to aid in educating the general public in the limitations and safe use of specific consumer products. 

Due to increasing demand for atrazine, in 1969 Geigy began production at a new plant in St. Gabriel, Louisiana. As part of the planning for the new facility, intensive research and development work was performed in Alabama and Basel to improve the production process. Instead of the batch process used previously, a new continuous production process was developed. The new and efficient Louisiana facility has been the recipient of numerous production, safety and environmental awards and recognitions, and is now the production site for all Syngenta atrazine, simazine, and terbuthylazine used worldwide. 

The standard stresses product safety and effectiveness and therefore contributes to safe, effective, and high quality products when necessary, the standard also covers all factors required to ensure safety and effectiveness, including product and process design, and process performance.
