Substitution of Hazardous Substances
WEBINAR
Substitution is the essential starting point in every risk assessment and is at the top of the Hierarchy of Control ‘STOP’ measures. Using safer alternatives in the lab reduces risk and minimizes exposure to hazardous materials. In particular, carcinogens and mutagens should be avoided.
Take a deep dive into identifying hazardous substances, risk assessment, how mistakes can be avoided, and what to do if no substitution is possible. Learn how to conduct a legally compliant substitution check using real substances as examples.
- Learn about risk control measures – from the most reliable and effective level of protection to the least
- Get to know the advantages and limitations of substitution
- Find out how to use tools like GHS Column Model and Vapor Hazard Ratio
