The website provides general information on the substances available on the European market which are derived from the registration of substances under EU chemicals legislation (REACH). It explains that substances of very high concern require specific risk management to avoid human health or environmental damage. The website also contains informatio about the PIC Regulation (Prior Informed Consent (PIC).

The guide gives an overview about the applications and health effects of asbestos in cement, and options and procedures to mitigate the risk arising from asbestos and its waste. Additionally, it has real examples of work situations. 

The guide informs that nitro aromatics are hardly used as such but are generated when aniline is used as a starting material for e.g. pigments and dyes. It gives information about different organic compounds, their health effects and on how to mitigate risks.

Guide on risks at workplaces in the construction sector, including from chemical agents. It describes health effects of dusts, welding fumes, chemicals, carcinogens and asbestos. The guide also describes risks from physical agents (such as noise and vibration) and biological agents.

This guide is about nanomaterials and their related risks in the workplace. It explains how workers can come across nanomaterials, and provides information on what steps should be taken to prevent potential exposures. Despite ongoing research, the field of nanotechnology is developing faster than knowledge about the effects of nanomaterials on health and safety. There are still many questionsdoubts, which raises questions about the risk assessment for occupational safety and health.

The guidance document provides basic information on chemical risks at the workplace. It includes information on hazardous substances in general, classification and labelling as well as safety data sheets and the health risks they could cause. The guidance also describes the risk assessment process and how exposure controls should be implemented. It also provides guidelines for communication and basic information on applicable legislation. 

This short document explains basic measures to protect oneself from exposure to pesticides during their use. It also explains the employers obligations.
