Public authorities’ action to protect the population
PDF
These public policies have led to a significant increase in knowledge about the environmental or dietary exposure of the French population to endocrine disruptors through the implementation of large-scale programs. They have also allowed France to propose at the European level measures to ban certain uses of endocrine disruptors such as BPA. The French National Health Security Agency has implemented work to better characterize the danger or dietary exposure to endocrine disruptors; Santé publique France has integrated the measurement of specific monitoring indicators for these substances and has developed actions to inform the population in order to limit their exposure to endocrine disruptors.
