  1. Cefic template to convert REACH dossier into GPS Safety Summary GPS / REACH workshop 04 Oct Athens, Greece By: L. Heezen

  2. Content Introduction Conversion template Examples Cefic sponsored pilot

  3. GPS Safety Summary • GPS Safety Summary – Generic Template • The summary should be fairly basic and understood by a layman • In EU the content can be based on REACH registration dossier • The content is no fixed format. It is up to companies to decide what is in it. • Conversion template can be used for referencing • SIEF / Consortium could be asked to draft main body GPS Safety Summary. Member companies can complete with own information.

  4. Cefic template

  5. Template • Substance name • Company to decide: brand name, popular well known name, IUPAC name etc • General Statement Optional for companies to complete High level description of substance use and application, its hazards and recommendations on safe use • Sourced: M&S department, product manager, product steward • Chemical identity • Identifiers like CAS#, Einecs, IUPAC etc • Source IUCLID section 1, CSR part B (1)

  6. Template • Uses and Applications • Product uses, consistent with REACH dossier.. Focus on benefits for consumers and society. Address consumer use, even if no consumer use. Indicate sector of use or article category • Source: CSR part B (2) and (9), IUCLID section 3.5 • Physical/chemical propertiesGeneral info on state, odor, appearance, melting point etc. • Focus on properties affecting exposure and environmental health. • Source: IUCLID section 4, CSR part B (1), eSDS section 9 • Health EffectsHigh level statement on safe use for consumers and workers. • Summarize conclusions on health effects based on the toxicity testing results or structural activity relationship based findings. List result of key studies important for conclusion. • Source; IUCLID section 7, CSR 5,6 and 10, section 4 exposure scenario

  7. Template • Environmental EffectsHigh level statement on environmental effects. • Summarize conclusions on environmental effects e.g. aquatic and/or terrestrial toxicity, environmental fate, biodegradation. List result of key studies important for conclusion. • Source: IUCLID section 5 and 6, CSR chapters 4,7,8 and 10, scetion 4 of ES • ExposureExposure potential. Describe nature and level (expected concentration) of industrial, consumer and environmental use and describe practices that limit exposure • Source: section 1 of ES, Chapter 9 of CSR

  8. Template • Risk Management RecommendationsDescribe practices for use and exposure at workplace, consumer and the environment. Exposure and Risk Management Recommendations can be combined into a “Potential Exposures” section with subheadings for Workers, Consumers, and Environment. • Add generic text on normal hygiene measures, and environmental recommendations. • Source: Section 2 of ES, Chapters 9 and 10 CSR, • State Agency ReviewList whether the chemical has been or is currently under review by a regulatory agency .
