What is the Chesar Platform?
The Chesar Platform is a tool that will help companies complete and report their chemical risk assessments under REACH and the Biocidal Products Regulation. It is accessible via ECHA Cloud Services.
What is the Chesar Platform used for?
The Chesar Platform brings chemical risk assessment processes together in a single modern, integrated environment. With this tool:
- Risk assessments can be carried out in a more organised and structured manner.
- Exposure estimation tools can be used as integrated tools within the platform.
- Reporting processes are made more consistent.
- Updates made during assessments can be managed more easily.
- Calculations can be automatically refreshed and reports can be regenerated.
REACH users can use the platform when preparing chemical safety assessments, generating Chemical Safety Reports, or preparing the exposure scenarios included in safety data sheets.
Biocidal product users can use it when carrying out environmental exposure and risk assessments for substances and when preparing the Risk Assessment Report / Competent Authority Report sections for active substances.
ECHA recommends that users start the transition process to the new platform and review the platform’s user manual, release notes and migration guides. ECHA has also noted that the previous Chesar 3 tool will continue to be supported for approximately one more year.
Webinar resources prepared by ECHA on the main features of the Chesar Platform and how to get started with its use have also been made available to users.
