Explanation
This question blongs to the jurisdiction of a law known as COSHH (Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations) in the UK. COSHH is a health and safety legislation requiring employers to control substances that are hazardous to workers' health. Most substances dangerous to health constitute those regulated by COSHH, but not all. Two popular types of dangerous substances, Asbestos and Lead, are not regulated by COSHH but by their specific laws due their special hazard nature.
