Changes in how institutions mitigate hazardous drug exposure are anticipated to rapidly evolve as individuals become better informed. Please join us as three international speakers address the evidence supporting the proven risks, examine the different controls that are designed to protect healthcare workers and communicate the different existing and emerging guidelines that exist globally.

This symposium will:
