Reproductive toxic materials are known hazards to safety professionals, especially in the R&D and healthcare spheres. Acute and chronic reproductively hazardous chemical exposures impact Total Worker Health and can have lasting impacts on health in all people. Regulatory agencies have provided evidence of reproductive toxicity and the associated risks—but despite awareness, risk quantification is lacking, and thus the most appropriate safety controls are not always implemented. As such, if they wish to keep their teams safe, EHS workers and organizations bear the burden to formulate a new method of managing the risks associated with acute and chronic exposures to reproductive hazards and set appropriate limits.
