Sourced, not guessed
Hazard classes from the ECHA inventory and exposure limits from HSE EH40, with the date checked on every record. Anything without an ECHA or HSE source says so.

Controls are ticked only if they are in place. Anything recommended for the substance that is missing goes on a further action list, so the gap is on paper.
