With both the world’s largest population and the largest chemical production base, the social issues and potential risks inherent in chemical production, usage and trade take on greater significance in China. To address environmental and public health concerns, the government has taken huge steps to ensure safe and sustainable growth of China’s industry. A concerted effort from both national and regional fronts to improve the joint law enforcement activities of environmental protection, public security, health care and public hygiene, has been increasingly effective. The efficacy of this increased administrative enforcement has been multiplied by an overhauled legislative framework.

The webinar has successfully concluded.
