Learn about upcoming chemicals regulations in India
India’s Chemicals (Management and Safety) Rules (ICMSR) will establish a new, comprehensive chemicals management system in India. A fifth draft is at the moment in circulation which expands compliance obligations under the current legal framework.
According to the draft, there are relatively short timeframes to meet these. Therefore, businesses are strongly advised to prepare in order to achieve timely and effective compliance.
This course will explain the provisions of the ICMSR, covering everything from its scope to safety and accident preparation, including notification and registration obligations for businesses placing chemicals on the market in India. After completing the course, you will be able to identify how the upcoming entry into force of the rules will affect your business and compliance strategies, giving you time to successfully fulfil its requirements.
The course will cover:
-
how the ICMSR builds on the current legal framework in India;
-
the overall approach of the system established under the ICMSR;
-
how Notification, Registration, and Restriction of substances will work under the ICMSR; and
-
what specific compliance obligations apply to different substance categories.
