International Chemical Safety Cards (ICSC): Participating institutions

The preparation of ICSC is an ongoing process of drafting and peer reviewing by a group of scientists working for a number of specialized scientific institutions concerned with occupational safety and health in different countries. The international peer-review process followed in the preparation of ICSC ensures the authoritative nature of the Cards and represents a significant asset of ICSC in contrast with other packages of information.
