vCHALLENGES
- Lack of technical guideline: although there has been Government Decree of
chemical safety and that comes into force already, but because still
lacking guidelines for implementing the certain items.
- Overlap of activities: because of a lot of stakeholders (ministries) involved
in the chemical management and chemical safety in a not clear
mechanism of duty or responsibilities allocation, the response ways of the
relevant bodies to the management requirements could be quite passive,
not active.
- Lack of coordination and cooperation;
- Information exchange;

inspection: have not been given due attention


Awareness of the business on the chemical safety remains
low
Coping skills of workers is not good
Equipment and manpower to response for chemical

Risk Assessement and Management in


chemical industry in Vietnam
vRegulation on RA in chemicals: not available.
vStudy on RA: Until now, there are some case
study on RA in the few chemical factory.
Example: Application of risk assessement
methods in Fertilizer; Assessement of chemical
risk and hazardous waste management and
some initial results of reseach on methods of
assessement chemical risk for human health.
vIn 2011 & 2012: Japan support some training
course on RA & RM for Vietnam Chemical
Agency

Need to training of safe management of


chemical risk
l Demand for chemical in increasing in Vietnam,
raising awareness of safety management of
chemical risk to communities, businesses and for
people exposed to chemicals in general, the toxic
chemical in particular is a important work.
l People will be more aware of action consistent with
the actual situation and minigate the negative impact
cause by chemical triggers.
l To achieve these objectives shoud have a team
equipped with the knowledge of safety management
risk chemicals.

Cont.
l This team will apply the theory into pratice to reduce the
toxic effect caused by use of chemicals to human health
and our environment and also to strengthen education to
raise awareness about safety risks of chemicals in the
community to the individual to the individual stakeholers.
l The demand for human resources needs to be seen as
the key in the implementation of the purpose of
education and implementation of requirement for safety
management of chemical risks.
l Most of chemicals are toxic and potentially affected the
environment and human health. But awareness of
chemicals risks and the preventive measures are limited.

Challenge for Risk Management


v Gathering Data
Search (existing data
e.g.) Internet etc

insufficient data

Estimation
e.g.) (Q)SAR, models

unreliable

Measurement
e.g.) animal study, environmental measurement etc.
Very expensive, takes a long time

20

Challenge for Risk Management


v Analysis Data
Measurement value
(Based on science study:
Routes, parameters)

Fomula, models, softwares


(Unsufficient: Local,
terrain, climate etc.)

Risk characterization
(Lack of science proof)

21

Proposals in RA & RM in Vietnam


l Legal solution: Promote the implementation and monitoring
closely the implementation of legal document on chemical
safety, assessement and chemical risk management in an
industrial chemical and chemical protection plants.
l Technical solution: need to improve production techniques
and related toxic chemical to reduce damage caused by use
chemicals to human helth and env.
l Measures for education training: Human resources firm from
the traning of young scientists and intellectual capacity.
l Investment in facilities for basic reaseach areas of chemical
risk assessement.

Trends of RA in Vietnam
lMethodology of RA: Develop long term
cooperation program with the developed
as Japan, USA;
lTo exchange experiences with forein
expert to raise the level of scientists in
Vietnam.
lEstabilst a legal document in RA
