In December 2002, the UN Sub-Committee of Experts on the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (UN SCEGHS) requested the OECD to start a further “development of the classification scheme to accommodate chronic toxicity to aquatic organisms for assigning a chronic hazard category”. In December 2006, the Sub-Committee requested the submission of a proposal in 2007. This document is the proposal for revision of GHS Chapter 4.1.

The approach described in this guidance document is to consider closely related chemicals as a group, or category, rather than as individual chemicals. In the category approach, not every chemical needs to be tested for every endpoint. Rather, the overall data for that category must prove adequate to support a hazard assessment. The overall data set must allow the estimation of the hazard for the untested endpoints.
