Third Party Verification of Responsible

Third party verification is now a requirement of Responsible Care with
verification of large companies (>/ = 250 employees and/or annual production
> / = 1 000 000 tonnes) being due by the end of September 2006.
Responsible Care verification of small and medium companies (< 250
employees and/or annual production < 1 000 000 tonnes) is due by the end of
September 2007.
Companies who implement environmental and health and safety management
standards such as ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 can arrange to include their
Responsible Care verification in their routine ISO and OHSAS audits.

At subsequent audits a score of 4 is awarded for Practice in Place
Maintained.
