UK REACH & GB CLP Practicalities: Linking UK and EU Processes
Objective
The UK and EU are maintaining virtually parallel systems in terms of terminology and technical standards, although there are issues with regard to responsibility in the supply chain, especially if supplying the UK and EU through hubs in the UK or EU.
The two half-day sessions cover both the issues that have arisen as a result of the UK exit from the EU and the new relations between EU and UK Regulations (and of course, not forgetting Northern Ireland).
A number of Regulations relating to chemical supply are impacted by the UK exit from the EU and although the principles and content of the Regulations remain the same in both regulatory frameworks, there are many organisers who are considered as importers and exporters and have respective responsibilities.
As well as REACH Registration and formatting of SDS and Labelling, other Regulations impacted include CLP, Biocides, Cosmetics, Plant Protection, etc.
The first step for all those involved in production and supply of chemical products is to establish their position in the supply chain to determine their own responsibilities. There is still some confusion in the market as to the respective roles, supply line mapping is crucial.
Once supply lines and responsibilities are understood, it will be necessary to look at the detail for REACH Registration and labelling (address of suppliers?) and so on. Ultimately, there may be a need for new UK Registrations to be considered.
The objective of these sessions is to ensure that the UK importer / supplier understands their position in the supply line and acts accordingly to comply with UK Regulations and to help their EU customers comply with EU Regulations when exporting. We will also cover key areas of divergence.

Delegate Feedback
Comments from delegates attending previous courses:
"Clear and relevant real life examples from the presenter, which allowed delegates to relate practical knowledge to the regulations."
“Mixture of slides and practical demonstration - particularly the UK REACH Gateway site. Mark provided lots of additional information on top of the content of the slides and made it interesting.”
“It was nice that it included some demo/walk-through of online tools like Comply With UK-REACH and IUCLID.”
Module Presentation
We will deliver this training using online training software, which we have used successfully for other CHCS training courses. You can use the software, free-of-charge on Windows, Macs, smartphones and tablets.
The sessions will run live and delegates can interact with the tutor and other delegates using their device microphone. The tutor will use a PowerPoint presentation, just as they would in face-to-face training. We will provide you with copies of the presentation and all other supporting documentation in advance of the training, by email.
