Additional information - workers

Betaine cannot be considered to cause risk to workers either via dermal or inhalation route. Inhalation route is not a risk for workers based on betaine's physico-chemical properties. Dermal toxicity for workers is not a risk since none of the testing performed indicated any toxicity, corrosivity or sensitization.
