Chemicals Regulatory Atlas
HELP
The
UK Chemicals Regulatory Atlas is intended
to help you! Compliance with chemicals
regulations can be complex. This Atlas
provides an overview of how the main
regulations fit together, and indicates
probable routes through the regulations,
depending upon what you need to
achieve.Its purpose is simply stated:
helping
the achievement of REGULATORY COMPLIANCE
in the most effective way
The
idea of an 'Atlas', comprising of
progressively more detailed Maps, is to
provide structure and guidance. It points
the way forward without advising on every
detail. From time to time we use the
language of maps and routes, to help
convey the information.
The
Maps are flow charts which provide an
overview of a topic, and suggest a
sequence of how to deal with the
regulations. They have supporting text in
'Text Boxes'. Each box either signposts
you to help or more detailed guidance,
which will either be in the form of a
text box or a lower level Map. For
example, Map A refers to Map A.3
(compliance with CHIP) and Map A.3 refers
to Text Box A.3.6 (labels).
The
Text Boxes are short summaries, which are
expanded in Annexes at the end of each
Map section.
Decision
points are shown clearly, and help on
these decisions is given in the form of
Guides. The Guides are numbered in
sequence within each Map.
Some
references are given in bold italics and
listed in the references and further
information section.
The
organisation of the Atlas is modular. Any
of the subject areas are possible
starting points.
