He uses the &#8220;Simple Concept of Measures for Hazardous Substances&#8221; (EMKG) from the Federal Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (BAuA) for risk assessments. He was introduced to the EMKG by an external consultant and learned how to use it in a workshop. In discussions with the other participants, he gained a good overview of how he can use the EMKG. He appreciates its ease of use and legal certainty. The EMKG is based on the Hazardous Substances Ordinance and also offers the option of keeping a hazardous substances register.
