DESCRIPTION:\n	This webinar will examine the occupational risks of forma
	ldehyde exposure in healthcare and the practical steps organisations can t
	ake to protect their workforce. \n\n\n\n	Hosted by the European Biosafety 
	Network\, this session brings together regulatory expertise and internatio
	nal occupational health insight to examine the hazards facing healthcare w
	orkers who handle formalin\, the legal obligations now placed on employers
	\, and the changes needed to make safer practice a reality. \n\n\n\n	Josh 
	Cobb\, Secretary of the EBN\, will explore why exposure in laboratories an
	d operating theatres can reach concentrations far exceeding safe levels\, 
	why the updated CMRD (2022) and COSHH Regulations require employers to eli
	minate exposure at source\, and why closed-system specimen containers repr
	esent the proven solution that meets this legal standard. \n\n\n\n	Dr Acra
	n Selman Navarro\, Chair of the ICOH Scientific Committee on Occupational 
	Health for Health Workers\, will examine the health effects of formaldehyd
	e exposure\, what rigorous exposure controls look like in practice\, and h
	ow organisations can strengthen training and establish continuous monitori
	ng programmes. \n\n\n\n	This session is intended for laboratory managers\,
	 theatre leads\, occupational health teams\, safety leads\, and policymake
	rs with an interest in protecting healthcare workers from formaldehyde exp
	osure.\n\n\n\n	Register here.\n\n
