NS believes it is important that employees and former employees can have confidence in the measures taken and that they are given complete clarity about any past and current health risks. Since employees have concerns, NS wishes to be fully transparent about this matter. That is why its approach to chromium trioxide is assessed by a committee of independent experts at NS. This independent committee, established in December 2015, reports on its findings and recommendations in the form of progress reports that are published on this page.
