My name is Laura Robinson and for over a decade I have worked in industry dealing with issues related to the use of hazardous chemicals in the workplace.
During this time I have witnessed and addressed many dubious practices ranging from staff opening drums of hazardous materials with axes to people actually washing their hands in industrial chemicals. I have also investigated cases where staff have experienced adverse health effects as a result of chemical exposure.
Throughout my career I have worked with all aspects of chemical compliance; for the EU, Australasia and the USA/Canada.
A key focus of Toxicology Consulting Ltd is in the provision of high-quality training courses related to many aspects of product stewardship. For more details take a look at the “Training courses and webinars ” page which can be accessed from above.
However, I also offer consultancy services related to various aspects of chemical safety. These include SDS authoring, CLP/GHS classification, chemical risk assessment (workplace and desk-based), occupational toxicology, regulatory compliance and even chemistry!
