COSHH<\/strong>, which stands for Control of Substances Hazardous to Health, is the law that requires employers to control hazardous substances in the workplace, and restrict or prevent the risk these substances pose to employees and workers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the easiest ways for workplaces to control these hazardous substances is by safely storing them in a\u00a0COSHH cupboard, or\u00a0COSHH cabinet.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
