This program provides a practical approach to conducting risk assessments demonstrating how reliable occupational health & hygiene data should be collected and used to make decisions on health risks from chemical substances.

• Focus on four key elements; how to measure exposure levels, how to select control measures, how to assess the performance of control used and how to assess effect on health. Examples of controls measures for chemical substances include ventilation systems, personal protective equipment and administrative controls
• Delegates will learn techniques for measuring exposure and how to assess whether the exposure data is reliable for making decisions on health risks
• The delegates will be able to advise on the development of industry wide chemical risk assessment programs and the data requirements
• The delegates will also be able to review and develop policies on control methods within industry and systems for monitoring their performance
• The delegates will also learn how information on exposure and the performance of control measures should be used when assessing health risks
• The program will be practically based with examples from different industrial workplace scenarios and how organizations can demonstrate and justify their decisions on managing risks to health from working with chemical substances

• Personnel who have responsibilities for conducting, overseeing or developing workplace risk assessments programs in occupational health and hygiene
• This includes engineers, occupational hygienists, safety practitioners and occupational physicians. Individuals whose work involves; either measuring occupational exposure data, assessing control measures or risk to health will benefit from this program
• The program is designed to demonstrate how the different experts can contribute to developing an industry wide risk assessment program
