Managing your company's responsibilities under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act (Cepa) is paramount to day to day operations. People with this responsibility will be required to ensure the chemicals they are using are safe for the public and all the way through the supply chain. This training will review and address regulatory compliance in Canada under the Cepa?? for new and existing substances and in products regulated under the Food and Drugs Act (F&DA).

Why is knowing Cepa regulation important?

Without compliance with the Regulation, companies and their personnel could open themselves to potential fines, injunctions or even prison sentences. Understanding the Regulation and how to comply with it ensures the safety of humans and the environment along with protecting the interests of your company.
