How Do Regulatory Agencies Assess Risk?

Regulatory agencies use a multi-step process to assess the risk posed by substances:
Hazard Identification: Determining whether a substance has the potential to cause harm.
Dose-Response Assessment: Establishing the relationship between the dose and the occurrence of adverse health effects.
Exposure Assessment: Evaluating the extent to which individuals or populations are exposed to the substance.
Risk Characterization: Combining the information from the previous steps to estimate the overall risk.
