如果某种化学品仅用于化妆品，并且在生产过程中工人有可能接触到它，那么 REACH 是否要求进行动物测试？

If a chemical is only used in a cosmetic product, and if there is a potential for worker exposure during the manufacturing process, will testing on animals be required under REACH?

如果确定欧洲经济区 (EEA) 的工人接触了该物质，则适用 REACH 要求。请注意，REACH 附件 VII 至 XI 中的条款鼓励使用适应性措施；动物试验应仅作为最后手段（REACH 第 25 条）。因此，只有在没有符合信息要求的可用信息，并且无法应用 REACH 附件 VII 至 X 第 2 栏或附件 XI 中的适应性措施的情况下，才需要对脊椎动物进行测试。这将是评估工人接触该物质对人类健康造成的潜在风险的唯一方法。

Where exposure to workers in the EEA is established, the REACH requirements apply. Note that the REACH provisions under Annexes VII to XI encourage the use of adaptations; animal testing should be performed as a last resort only (Article 25 of REACH). Consequently, testing on vertebrate animals will be required only if there is no available information which meets the information requirements, and where no adaptation possibility under column 2 of REACH Annexes VII to X, or under Annex XI can be applied. This will represent the only means to assess the potential human health risks arising from exposure to workers.
