Document background
The Glass And Hard Plastic Risk Assessment is a crucial document required under Belgian workplace safety regulations and EU directives to ensure proper evaluation and management of risks associated with glass and hard plastic materials in professional environments. This assessment becomes necessary when organizations handle, process, or store significant quantities of glass or hard plastic materials, or when these materials pose potential safety risks to workers or visitors. The document serves as both a compliance tool and a practical guide for implementing safety measures, incorporating requirements from the Belgian Code on Well-being at Work, REACH regulations, and relevant EU safety directives. It should be updated regularly or when significant changes occur in the workplace that might affect the risk profile of these materials.
