Stewardship Overview

As part of its core mission to protect human health and the environment, The Chlorine Institute ("CI" or "The Institute") supports the chlor-alkali industry and its customers, while serving the public by promoting continuous technical and safety advancements in the handling and use of CI mission chemicals.¹ 

The Product Stewardship Issue Team (committee) focuses upon driving end user mission chemical accidents to zero. This is accomplished via a variety of methods including, but not limited to:

1. Developing and distributing educational resources such as pamphlets, checklists, videos, wall charts, and other materials to meet the diverse and variable needs of members and their customer end users.
2. Participating in federal rulemaking and related activities to support sound-science regulation.
3. Developing programs to track and measure safety improvements in end user handling and use of mission chemicals, while identifying sectors with the greatest need.
4. Partnering with members to develop training content and educational presentations for use in engagements with end user audiences.
5. Collaborating with downstream technical industry associations and organizations to share chlor-alkali related safety information and contribute to the development and revision of  technical standards.

At the core of CI's Stewardship Program is the Member Safety and Security Commitment. Each year, all Chlorine Institute member companies that produce, distribute, or use chlorine certify their adherence to this commitment.
