Working with hazardous substances

If you own a company in the Netherlands and your employees are (or could be) exposed to hazardous substances while carrying out their work, you are required to take measures to limit or avoid that exposure to the greatest degree possible. When taking measures, you must follow the occupational hygiene strategy.

Substances Manager

Arboportaal offers you practical information on safety when working with hazardous substances. The information is provided through a digital tool called the ‘Stoffenmanager’ (‘Substances Manager’). This (Dutch-language) tool describes what measures you can take in your company. Various sector-specific substance managers are available.
