GreenSoft Technology provides help with CA Prop 65
Compliance with CA Prop 65 requires businesses to have detailed knowledge of the chemicals that their products or business locations contain and expose to the California public.
Affected companies are required to inform Californians about exposure to substances on the CA Prop 65 chemicals list before the potential exposure takes place. Penalties for being found in violation of CA Prop 65 can be as high as $2,500 per violation, per day.
In order to know which chemicals are exposed to the public, a business must collect substance data on the products that it sells to the public in California or the products that it uses within its California business locations.
