To map the current situation, interviews were conducted with selected waste management companies. Waste operators were asked to reflect on their understanding, awareness and compliance with chemicals related legal requirements, management practices in identifying hazardous substances, access to laboratory analysis and the use of testing in practice and control measures applied to waste streams and secondary materials, as well as companies’ needs and challenges related to identifying hazardous substances.

The comprehensive "Chemicals risk management handbook for formulators" developed as part of the LIFE FitForREACH-2 project, is now also available in Estonian.

We are pleased to announce that the comprehensive guide, "Chemicals risk management handbook for formulators," has been translated and is now available in Lithuanian.

As part of the LIFE FitforREACH-2 project, project partners carried out a review of how chemical-related topics are reflected in national media. The analysis covered press reporting in Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia, as well as in Poland, with the aim of identifying common trends, shifts over time and national differences in how chemicals are framed in public discourse.
