About CSR/ES
Exposure scenarios are important tools for improving the safe use of chemicals in Europe. They provide information on how the exposure of workers, consumers and the environment to substances can be controlled in order to ensure their safe use. Exposure scenarios are developed by manufacturers and importers in the context of the chemical safety assessment as part of the REACH registration.
ECHA and several stakeholder organisations have developed a plan for improving the content and use of exposure scenarios during the years 2013-2018, called the CSR/ES Roadmap.
Several industry organisations and Member States have signed the commitment charter for this important collaborative effort. They also share a vision on how information on chemicals can be communicated in the supply chain to promote the safe use of chemicals, as illustrated here (click image to enlarge it):
