Implementation of stringent chemical regulations in the United States and the European Union is onerous and difficult. For companies that manufacture or sell chemical products, the current and ever-expanding body of chemical regulation is a significant business challenge. This event will answer the following questions:

• What reforms of these important laws and regulations are in the offing? How are companies addressing related risk assessment and liability issues?
• How are emerging issues affecting your compliance approaches and programs? The discussion covers combined effects, endocrine disrupters, nanotechnology and more.
• How can companies manage compliance with the plethora of chemical use, labeling, registration, notification and authorization requirements?
• What can you do so chemicals in products meet specified maximum concentration limits, exposure limits and/or chemical use restrictions?
