Consumer Chemical Products in Canada
The Government of Canada has committed to introducing mandatory labelling of consumer chemical products.
Canada Consumer Product Safety Act (CCPSA)
The Consumer Product Safety Program at Health Canada is responsible for the administration and enforcement of the CCPSA (or the Act) and its regulations.
The purpose of the CCPSA is to protect the public by addressing or preventing dangers to human health or safety that are posed by consumer products in Canada.
The Act sets out a general prohibition on consumer products that are a danger to human health or safety. The Act includes several product specificregulations.
Consumer products subject to the CCPSA and its regulations are those that may reasonably be expected to be obtained by an individual to be used for non-commercial purposes.
Issues Cited
Consumer products regulated under the Canada Consumer Product Safety Act (CCPSA) are excluded from the requirements of the Hazardous Products Act (HPA).
Some stakeholders have expressed concerns with the exclusion of consumer products under the HPA, including:
Consumer products are increasingly used in the workplace without adequate hazard information for workers to use, handle or store these products safely.
Current requirements under the HPA are not sufficient to inform workers of hazards posed by consumer products in workplace settings where these products could be used in higher frequency.
