These are hazardous and harmful substances for which the implementation of risk assessment is mandated under Article 57-3 of the Industrial Safety and Health Act. ◆ What are the obligations of businesses regarding substances subject to risk assessment?

It is recommended for factories, large facilities, and workplaces. For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.
