Supply chain risk management information-related

The communication requirements of REACH ensure that manufacturers, importers, and their customers (i.e., downstream users and distributors) have the information they need to use chemicals safely. Information relating to health, safety and environmental properties, and risks and risk management measures is required to be passed both up and down the supply chain. The primary tool for information is the familiar safety data sheet (SDS) for all dangerous substances. [Pg.685]

Furthermore, REACH includes new or increased demands on the bidirectional flow of data and information in the supply chain (Tide IV) and places demands on downstream users (Tide V). For instance, REACH includes provisions on safety data sheets for substances on the candidate list (Article 31 and Annex II) and forces suppliers of articles to actively provide information for the safe use of the articles (Article 33). In addition, REACH entities consumers to, without charge, request information within 45 days on the safe use of articles containing SVHCs in concentrations above 0.1 wt% (Article 33). It remains to be seen to what extent the increased flows of information will impact on the management of chemicals. However, companies that work with environmental management systems and companies located closer to consumers in commodity chains will probably seek more actively to decrease chemical-related risks. [Pg.248]
