General Report 2014

ECHA initiated the pursuit of the four strategic objectives, as planned, by focusing on the re-assessment
of the foundations of its operations and resources in dialogue with its stakeholders and its Management Board and agreeing on new strategies, roadmaps and efficiency improvements. Although the focus was less on output numbers in this starting year of the five-year strategic plan, based on the results from the measurements used for monitoring the progress, the year has seen progress in the achievement of each of the four strategic objectives.

1. Maximise the availability of high quality information to enable the safe manufacture and use of chemicals
2. Mobilise authorities to use information intelligently to identify and address chemicals of concern
3. Address the scientific challenges by serving as a hub for building scientific and regulatory capacity of Member States, European institutions and other actors
4. Embrace current and new legislative tasks efficiently and effectively, while adapting to upcoming resource constraints
