Chemical Hazard Identification with CHAMP
Improve Your Organization’s Chemical Standards
Chemscape’s chemical management software, CHAMP, provides comprehensive chemical hazard identification assessments for every chemical in your inventory and sorts it into an easy-to-understand hazard band.
Knowledge of occupational exposure to hazardous substances, once the domain of chemical experts, is now accessible to every worker, no matter the level of experience or area of expertise.
A Chemical Hazard Identification Tool That Considers How the Hazardous Chemical Is Used
An effective chemical hazard risk assessment takes into account the specific circumstances surrounding the product’s usage and asks the questions an Industrial Hygienist would when working with chemical hazards. These risks change based on product use, quantity, frequency, and current engineering controls.
CHAMP’s Risk Assessment Tool goes beyond standard assessments by calculating and recommending controls to manage risk based on your organization’s product use.
You’ll also have the flexibility to customize the risk levels according to the specific needs of your organization.
