ECHA single programming document(s) 2024-2026

ECHA's annual work programme translates and implements our Strategy Statement as outlined in the multi-annual work programme above. The annual work programme for the year 2024 will be the first one implementing our new strategy statement 2024-2028. It will also be a year where several new tasks, arising from the Chemicals Strategy for Sustainability, will need to be implemented. All of this will happen in the context of continuing to meet and implement our existing legal obligations. ECHA will also continue to deliver on the EU priorities defined in the EU Green Deal, the Chemicals Strategy for Sustainability (CSS) and contribute to the ambition for a toxic-free environment leading to zero pollution. We will continue to inform and contribute our expertise and knowledge on chemicals to EU policy makers as they continue to deliver revised and new legislative proposals arising from the CSS including on the revision of the REACH regulation and ECHA's Basic Regulation. We will, in 2024, take further steps to implement the tasks given to ECHA under the Drinking Water Directive, the Serious Cross-border threats to health Regulation and the Batteries Regulation, which are important to not only protect health but also key to reducing chemical pollution too. In line with our new strategic goals, priorities and values, this work programme has been prepared to show clearly all activities that the Agency will deliver in 2024.
