(K-BPR) Chemical Safety Concerns in Consumer Products – Exposure and Health Risk

Dec. 21st, 2022

Dr. Jaewoong Lee (NIER, MOE, South Korea)

Free


REACH24H hosts its 14th Chemical Regulatory Annual Conference, free for all attendees to participate.

Building on the success of the past two years of virtual forums, CRAC 2022 this year will focus on the status quo and future challenges and possibilities found in chemical management, pesticide registration, cosmetics, and food contact materials in Asia, the EU, the U.K., the U.S., and other major trade partners.

CRAC2022 CRAC 2022 – Global Chemical Compliance Management Session


In response to the rising concerns over chemical products after the “toxic humidifier sterilizer” accident in 2011, South Korea has accelerated the legislative process regarding chemical products.  Since the enactment of the “Consumer Chemical Products and Biocides Safety Control Act” (i.e., “Chemical Product Safety Act”) in 2018, any manufacturer, importer, seller, and distributor of active substances and biocidal products shall receive approval from the Ministry of Environment(MOE).

To help simplify the K-BPR compliance, we have invited Dr. Jaewoong Lee, Government Research Officer of the National Institute of Environmental Research (NIER), Ministry of Environment (MOE), South Korea, to introduce the K-BPR regulations and data requirements, specifically, information on exposures, and hazards or risk information to humans, animals and the environment. Dr. Lee will start from his rich experience in South Korea’s MOE, stress compliance points and give specific suggestions for the compliance process.

*If you were unable to attend the live sessions, the recordings will be made available on the CRAC2022 platform after the successful registration.
