Endocrine disruptors in the workplace
BSOH Studiedag - Journée d'étude
Theme: Lately there seems to be more and more interest in the endocrine disruptors. The chemicals adjust or hormonal balance and are present in a wide range of sectors such as agriculture, construction, cleaning, textile production, beaty and skin care, recycling,… Legally they are mentioned right next to carcinogenic substances.
Where is this all coming from? Are these products dangerous? How can we recognize them? What can we do about it? Join us at the seminar to find out.

The National Action Plan on Endocrine Disruptors (NAPED)
An action plan has been implemented in June 2022 in
Belgium in order to decrease the exposure of the population
and of the environment to endocrine disruptors. This action
plan is based on the collaboration between the different
competent authorities at federal, regional and regional
levels, and with the stakeholders. Several types of actions
are currently ongoing: preventive actions, regulatory actions
and research-based actions. This first action plan will end in
December 2026.

Identification and communication of endocrine disruptors: from REACH to CLP
How are endocrine disruptors identified in the EU? Where can you find information on endocrine disruptors?
With the notion of Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC), REACH provided the first framework for identification and communication on Endocrine disruptors. The hazard class endocrine disruption is since 2023 added in the CLP regulation. |

Occupational exposure to endocrine disruptors : challenges,
difficulties, and advices for preventionists and occupational
physicians
(Expositions professionnelles aux perturbateurs endocriniens : enjeux, difficultés, et conseils pour les préventeurs et les médecins du travail)
With a definition of endocriene disruptors and its mechanism
of actions we will discuss the possible health effects.
With a small overview of the legislation and the sectors
at risk we will discuss the sources of exposure.
This will lead us to how companies control this group of
Chemicals, which tools exist and which obstacles they might
Encounter and how the occupational physician can approach
this subject.

Beste,
Bij deze wens ik mijn aanwezigheid voor de BSOH seminarie Endocrine disruptors op te zeggen, daar ik niet aanwezig kan zijn.
Ik heb het geprobeerd via de online registratie, maar het schijnt niet te lukken.
