Compendium of Canada's engagement in international environmental agreements and instruments. Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) decisions related to the Chemicals Programme.: En4-381/1-21-2018E-PDF
"The OECD Chemicals Programme has been around since 1971. The agreements made within this organization are important to Canada because they contribute to strengthening international relations towards the sound chemicals management while also sharing the burden. The decisions taken within the OECD are legally binding; therefore, Canada is an active participant within the programme. Within this organization, Canada is trying to achieve harmonized approaches within chemicals assessment and management in order to protect human health and the environment. By achieving an international goal of safe management of chemicals, member countries can benefit by sharing the workload, therefore reducing costs and enabling access to shared science-based knowledge"--Plain language summary.
