Reminder for 'Comply with UK-REACH' Users to Log in to Maintain Access

The UK Health and Safety Executive (HSE) is urging all 'Comply with UK-REACH' users to log in to their Government Gateway accounts immediately. The 'Comply with UK-REACH IT' service, which has been operational for three years on 1 January 2024, requires users to log in at least once every 3 years to keep their accounts active.

Some users may not have accessed their Government Gateway accounts since meeting their initial regulatory obligations. Assistance is available from the UK Chemicals Helpline at 0330 159 1985 for those experiencing problems accessing 'Comply with UK REACH.'

HSE emphasises the importance of assigning multiple administrators to each 'Comply with UK REACH' account to prevent loss of access if an administrator leaves. It is important to note that data previously submitted via 'Comply with UK REACH' will no be deleted, but loss of access to the Government Gateway account means that previous submissions cannot be updated or progressed.
