The Polish version of/International Chemical Safety Cards is based on the translation of the International Chemical Safety Card (ICSC) developed within the International Programme on Chemical Safety (IPCS) in cooperation with and financial support of the Commission of the European Communities (CEC). International Chemical Safety Cards comprise basic information and requirements in the field of chemical safety as well as in/health and environment protection during production, transportation and application stages. Cards are a simple and easy available source of information for control services involved in labour hygiene, technical supervision, industrial health services at lower levels as well as for employers and employees. The cards should be available at each work place and at each work-post.
