Posted By Vaila Mackenzie We require to carry out a Risk Ranking Process on the chemicals used on site to use as a priority setting tool for assessments. Does anyone know where I can find something that considers such factors as carcinogens, PPE requirements, STEL's, MEL's etc that would score each chemical?

Posted By Ron Hunter Is it just me or is COSHH Essentials very much weighted towards solvent based products and to fire/explosion risks? Plugging some values and information in, a water miscible paint came out as very much higher risk than cement?
