Summary/Abstract: The European Union aims to reduce the pressure on the natural resources, to create real economic growth, while preventing losses in the ecosystem, and to achieve climate neutrality targets by 2050. In the military field, workers are constantly exposed to a wide variety of chemicals, and the full impact of this continued exposure is unknown. Following an extensive analysis of the impact of the REACH Regulation on the field of defence in our country, it can be stated that most ammunition, equipment and military vehicles for all categories of forces need a reassessment in order to fulfil our country’s obligations at European level. Such a process is extensive, requiring both the understanding of the phenomena and their medium- and long-term impact, the establishment of an action plan on types of military products, and a considerable financial effort.
