## Scoring Rubric

### PASS (7+ points per section)
- All bare minimum content present
- ≥70% of recommended content present
- No missing mandatory REACH Annex II elements
- Document ≥5 pages for classified substances

### BARELY PASS (4-6 points per section)
- All bare minimum present
- 40-69% of recommended content present
- May lack some "nice to have" elements
- Document 3-4 pages

### NO PASS (<4 points per section or missing mandatory)
- Missing bare minimum elements
- <40% of recommended content
- Missing entire sections
- Document <3 pages despite classified hazards
- Missing REACH registration number on substances ≥1t

## Narrative text requirements

All 16 sections must have **product-specific** narrative where applicable, not generic placeholders:
- First aid measures: specific to the product's hazard profile
- Firefighting: specific to the product's flammability
- Toxicological: should reference the product's H-statements
- Ecological: should reference the product's ecotoxicity classification
