Johannesburg Plan of Action
･･･aiming to achieve by 2020 that chemicals are used and produced in ways that lead to the minimization
of significant adverse effects on human health and the environment using transparent science‐based risk management procedure, taking into account the precautionary approach as set out in Principle 15 of the Rio Declaration on Environment and
Development.
・・・to develop a strategic approach to international chemicals management until 2005
ＳＡＩＣＭ Strategic Approach to International Chemicals Management
• Adopted by the International Conference on Chemicals
Management (ICCM) on 6 February 2006 in Dubai, United Arab
Emirates, the Strategic Approach to International Chemicals
Management (SAICM) is a policy framework to foster the sound
management of chemicals.
• SAICM was developed by a multi‐stakeholder and multi‐sectoral
Preparatory Committee and supports the achievement of the
goal agreed at the 2002 Johannesburg World Summit on
Sustainable Development of ensuring that, by the year 2020,
chemicals are produced and used in ways that minimize
significant adverse impacts on the environment and human
health.
• Progress in the implementation of SAICM was reviewed at the
second session of the ICCM held from 11 to 15 May 2009.

Chemical Risk to Human Health
direct contact oral, skin・・・
indirect contact through air, water, food・・・
（hazard） Ｘ （exposure） ＝ （risk）
Exposure analysis
（including estimation）
Risk-base management?
How can we use chemicals appropriately,
safe to human health and environment-friendlily?
Hazard analysis
(NOAEL, safety factor)
On assumption that it is safe if we can keep the exposure under some limit
Risk Assessment
Ways of use and quantity through supply chain
Examine the method of use and quantity limit, basing
upon the information concerning ways of use

Responsible Care
Responsible Care (RC) is a set of activities
aimed at preserving the environment and
ensuring safety and health in all stages of
chemical substance life cycles from
development and manufacturing to distribution,
use, final consumption, and disposal (product
stewardship)
RC is a Voluntary Initiative with company's
commitment to improve all aspects of
Environment, Health and Safety and to
communicate with the public about
activities and achievement to ensure
transparency on the following five
considerations

Responsible Care Global Charter
Chapter 1 Adopt Global Responsible Care Core Principles Chapter 2 Implement Fundamental Features of National Responsible Care Programs Chapter 3 Commit to Advancing Sustainable Development
Chapter 4 Continuously improve and report performance
Chapter 5 Enhance the Management of Chemical Products World wide – Product Stewardship
Chapter 6 Champion and facilitate the extension of Responsible Care throughout the chemical industry’s value chain
Chapter 7 Actively support national and global Responsible Care governance processes Chapter 8 Address stakeholder expectations about chemical industry activities and products Chapter 9 Provide appropriate resources to effectively implement Responsible Care
Trang 5ＧＨＳ Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals
• Classification and labelling according to the
hazard of chemicals
• International harmonization
• UN Recommendation July 2003
• UN GHS official document(purple); third
revised edition, July 2009
What is GPS?
• 2006 1st International Conference on Chemicals Management（ICCM‐1）
‐ Dubai Declaration
• ICCA launched GPS and RC Global Charter to
contribute to SAICM.
CEOs of major chemical companies signed the Charter.
• GPS is the framework to expand chemicals management even to supply chain companies and customers.
• GPS has the principles and method to implement.
Strategic Elements of GPS
1. Develop global guidelines for Product Stewardship
2. Develop a management system approach
3. Define a tiered process for completing risk characterizations and risk
management recommendations for chemicals in commerce
4. Improve product stewardship cooperation with industry groups and
companies and address product challenges throughout the chemicals value
companies and address product challenges throughout the chemicals value
chain
5. Develop partnerships with inter‐governmental organizations and other
interested stakeholders
6. Make relevant product stewardship information available to the public
7. Participate in scientific inquiry to address new and emerging health and
environmental concerns
8. Develop a process to communicate internally and externally
9. Develop global advocacy principles
Each country revises regulations and/or introduces new regulations to achieve the goal of WSSD2020.
