Résumé:
The guide “Guidance on Key Considerations for the Identification and Selection of Safer Chemical Alternatives” released by OECD aims to provide key considerations for the identification and selection of alternatives.
Description:
The guide “Guidance on Key Considerations for the Identification and Selection of Safer Chemical Alternatives” published by OCDE in 2021 provides a general approach and criteria for the selection of alternatives, focusing on minimum assessment criteria and recommended assessment practices for four core areas of alternatives evaluations:
- determining the assessment’s scope
- comparative hazard assessment
- comparative exposure assessment
- integration of hazard and exposure results to select a safer alternative.
The guidance also includes recommendations for moving beyond the minimum criteria and assessment practices.
