companies take their health and safety responsibilities very
seriously, particularly with regard to dust exposure in the
workplace.
Therefore, abim has actively offered assistance to the Health
& Safety Executive during its various consultation exercises
in the last few years.
abim also hosted an occupational allergy seminar for the
industry and produced Occupational Allergy Guidelines and
a model Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS).
The guidelines aim to ensure companies involved in the bakery
ingredients sector are fully aware of their regulatory obligations
in terms of informing employees and customers about the appropriate
handling of a range of potential sensitising agents.
The sub-committee Chairman represents abim on the Health
& Safety in Bakeries Liaison Committee and on the FDF
Occupational Health & Safety Panel.
