The Institute’s work involves, in particular, the evaluation or development of standard tools and methods designed to better understand, predict and manage the risks arising from human activities that may affect the safety of people, property and ecosystems. The Institute also offers its expertise to support the preparation and implementation of technical regulations.
Ineris’s support programmes are grouped into ‘structural themes’ that correspond to the main themes of the Institute’s objectives and performance contract:
- managing risks associated with the energy transition, the supply of critical raw materials and the circular economy;
- understanding and managing risks at the level of an industrial site and a region;
- characterising the hazards of substances and their impacts on human health and biodiversity.
Particular attention is paid to the promotion and dissemination of the deliverables produced under these programmes and intended for the various stakeholders involved in risk prevention.
