This article describes the 12 steps of the HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point) method, based on the Codex Alimentarius reference text. HACCP is a method that ensures the microbiological, chemical, and physical safety of food through the implementation of various predefined activities and provides evidence of this safety. The key steps of the method are hazard analysis (Step 6) and the identification of Critical Control Points (CCPs and others) (Step 7). Widely used in the food industry and featured in various regulatory standards, it is the best way to ensure the safety of food products
This article provides an overview of man-made disaster risks in the European Union. It addresses accidental risks such as those associated with the disruption of critical infrastructure, industrial chemical accidents, nuclear and radiological accidents, and so-called ‘Natech’ events. The threats also cover security-related aspects, notably terrorism and cyber threats. The article discusses emerging risks, particularly those linked to technological developments, armed conflicts and disinformation. It concludes with the challenges and prospects relating to preparedness for expected and unexpected risks, early action and strategic foresight for better anticipation.
This article provides an overview of the risks posed by natural hazards and related disasters in the European Union. It analyses lessons learned from the past and the impacts of extreme weather events: heavy rainfall, heatwaves, storms, floods, droughts, forest fires and mega-fires. It also addresses geophysical risks such as earthquakes, tsunamis, avalanches and landslides. Finally, it addresses the challenges of resilience, risk preparedness, early action and strategic foresight.
Do measures to prevent workplace accidents and occupational diseases contribute to companies’ economic performance? Over the past two decades, numerous studies in economics and management science have supported the hypothesis that prevention yields economic benefits. Many of these studies propose measures of the return on prevention efforts, which are thus treated as investments. However convincing these studies may be, the hypothesis of the economic benefits of prevention is neither self-evident to stakeholders nor scientifically established.
The REACH Regulation established the principle of authorization as a new EU risk management tool specifically for chemicals of very high concern. The first step is the inclusion of substances identified as SVHCs on the Candidate List: they are “candidates” for authorization but are already subject to legal obligations that apply to all actors in the supply chain. If you distribute a substance on the Candidate List or an article containing such a substance, you are subject to information requirements. Why? What are these requirements? Could they change?

The first step is the inclusion of substances identified as SVHCs on the Candidate List: they are “candidates” for authorization but are already subject to legal obligations that apply to all actors in the supply chain.

Could they change?
The REACH Regulation established the principle of authorization as a new EU risk management tool specifically for SVHCs. This tool affects the market and the use of substances. Substances on the Candidate List are not yet subject to authorization at this stage of the process. You manufacture, import, distribute, or use a substance on the Candidate List. What are the implications for the market?
Occupational exposure to noise is a significant source of risk for workers. It affects their health, both in terms of hearing damage (deafness) and non-auditory effects (fatigue, stress, etc.). The French Labor Code sets requirements regarding workers’ exposure to noise, the acoustic treatment of work premises, and the noise emission levels of machinery. The employer is responsible for ensuring compliance with these requirements. This document aims to provide occupational safety and health professionals with the knowledge necessary to understand, measure, and reduce noise in the workplace. It also aims to place noise control at the heart of a comprehensive occupational health and safety strategy and sustainable performance.
Your substance is listed in Annex VI of the CLP Regulation and therefore has a harmonized classification. How can I find this ranking? What are your obligations? How does this affect the classification of your mixtures? How can you track your progress?
In terms of substances, the "harmonized" and "proposed" classifications in the REACH registration dossier differ. You must compare the two to determine the regulatory classification of your substance. Your substance is listed in Annex VI of the CLP Regulation and therefore has a harmonized classification. It has also been registered, and its registration dossier indicates a classification that differs from the harmonized one. Which one should you choose? On what basis should this decision be made? Do you have any specific obligations to fulfill?
