Occupational chemical safety 

Occupational chemical and biological safety covers the management of substances and materials, which employees can be exposed to in the workplace. COWI provides consultancy services on how to eliminate and reduce exposure to hazardous substances and materials.
The legislation on the working environment covers a series of regulations about substances and materials in the working environment.
