What are the Key Components of a Risk Management Plan?
A comprehensive risk management plan in toxicology typically includes the following components:
Identification of Potential Hazards: Recognizing substances that could pose a risk to health or the environment. Exposure Assessment: Evaluating the extent and duration of exposure to the hazardous substance. Risk Evaluation: Determining the likelihood and severity of adverse effects from exposure. Control Measures: Implementing strategies to reduce or eliminate exposure, such as engineering controls, administrative controls, or personal protective equipment (PPE). Monitoring and Review: Regularly checking the effectiveness of control measures and making necessary adjustments.
