Responsible Care
Responsible Care is the chemical industry’s comprehensive Environment, Health, Safety & Security (EHS&S) performance improvement initiative. Originally conceived in 1984 by the Canadian Chemical Producers Association, the initiative was brought to the United States by American Chemistry Council (ACC) in 1988. Gulf Petrochemicals and Chemicals Association (GPCA) adopted the Responsible Care Initiative in 2009, thereby, bringing this important initiative to the Gulf and Middle East Region.
