Responsible Care®: The Chemical Manufacturing Industry’s Commitment to Facility Safety, Environmental Protection and Sustainability

The U.S. chemical manufacturing industry is a roughly $565 billion enterprise that develops the products and technologies that touch nearly every aspect of our lives. Chemistry enables solutions to some of the world’s most daunting challenges, including climate change, access to food and clean water, air quality, managing waste, conserving natural resources, and more. These challenges have grown more complex as we seek to sustain the health and well-being of Earth’s growing population and its natural environment. A career in the chemical manufacturing industry can give you the opportunity to work for a company that is driving change and innovating many of the products, processes and technologies that are essential to a sustainable future. The American Chemistry Council represents large and small chemical manufacturing companies across the country that are committed to excellence in environmental, health, safety and security performance and are innovating to develop the products and technologies that can enhance sustainability around the globe. At this workshop, you will learn about Responsible Care® – the chemical industry’s commitment to worker, facility and community health and safety; environmental protection and resource efficiency; and developing safe, innovative chemical products that meet consumer demands.
