Kao’s Safety Summary of chemicals for priority risk assessment


In 2013, the Kao Group selected chemicals groups (categories) for priority risk assessment, and established a medium-term risk assessment plan that runs until 2020.
In this assessment plan, chemicals for priority risk assessment are selected taking into account various factors including the manufacture quantity, use and amount of use in the Kao Group, exposure level for humans and the environment, and the importance in Kao’s business activities. Kao will strive to carry out thorough risk assessment of chemicals under this risk assessment plan, and disclose safety summary describing the assessment results for experts and enterprises that handle chemicals.
