Key International Chemical Regulation Initiatives

There are six major international initiatives governing chemical regulation:

  1. Strategic Approach to International Chemicals Management (SAICM): Establishes a global policy framework to enable sound chemical management.
  2. Globally Harmonised System (GHS): Promotes safer labelling and handling of chemicals, focusing on protecting human health and the environment throughout their lifecycle.
  3. Stockholm Convention: A treaty safeguarding human health and the environment against persistent organic pollutants (POPs).
  4. Rotterdam Convention: Encourages joint responsibility and cooperation in international hazardous chemical trade to protect health and the environment. It facilitates information exchange, national decision-making processes regarding import/export, and transparent communication among parties.
  5. Basel Convention: Aims to prevent harm from hazardous and other waste by regulating generation, movement, and disposal, providing cross-border environmental protection.
  6. Montreal Protocol: Coordinates global action to control substances that deplete the ozone layer.
