COSHH is the primary set of regulations in the UK that governs the use and control of hazardous substances in the workplace covering a wide range of substances including purchased hazardous materials, substances that form naturally from everyday workplace activities or those that form as a result of workplace processes.

The most common items that require a COSHH risk assessment are cleaning products, oils, paints, dusts and fumes.

There is a misconception that ill-health related hazards are not as severe as more physical immediate injuries. However, it has been reported by the HSE:

• Occupational ill-health is responsible for over 12,000 UK deaths every year.
• In 2019/20 alone, there were 1.6 million new cases of ill-health, in comparison 693,000 were injuries.
• It is expected the impact of COVID-19 will have a large effect on ill-health cases.

This demonstrates the real need to understand COSHH and hazardous substance risks within the workplace to keep staff safe.
