Chemical Health Risk Assessment (CHRA)

Protecting workers from the adverse effects of chemicals is one of the primary duties of an employer under the Occupational Safety and Health Act 1994. To perform this duty, an assessment of all chemicals used in the workplace must be carried out in order to identify, evaluate and control any health risk associated with work activities involving the use of the chemicals.

The Chemical Health Risk Assessment (CHRA) is an assessment that has to be conducted by the employer arising from the use, handling, storage or transportation of chemicals hazardous to health in their workplace as required by the Occupational Safety and Health (Use and Standard of Exposure of Chemicals Hazardous to Health) Regulation 2000.

EHSAN's assessor is recognised and registered as a competent person with Department of Occupational Safety And Health (DOSH) to conduct the chemical health risk assessment in your workplace.
