transparent hazardous chemicals management
High safety standards characterize the INEOS Köln site, which is why the company utilizes AMCS to record and analyze unsafe situations and incidents that could potentially endanger the environment. One example of this is the company’s hazardous chemicals register, which includes a list of all potentially dangerous materials and their corresponding safety data sheets, accessible in AMCS at any time.
Using a filter, employees can immediately find the working or hazardous chemicals they are looking for, including properties and application areas. Identifying and labeling individual substances according to GHS/CLP is done easily with the click of the mouse. The software then automatically alerts users when safety data sheets need to be updated, ensuring that hazardous chemicals are handled safely across the entire company.
