Uncontrolled asbestos exposure can result from management failings, necessitating a detailed investigation. As a market leading asbestos testing, inspection, and consultancy service provider, we take pride in guiding you through this multifaceted challenge.
Exposure assessment is a process where toxicological data is combined with information regarding the degree of exposure, so that the potential impact of a contaminant can be quantitatively assessed.
The approach is based on the four-step risk assessment process and has been developed to evaluate the health risks associated with the exposure to asbestos in occupational settings.
Hazard identification
Review relevant documentation and information such as the location, extent, type and condition of the asbestos materials, quantity of asbestos within the product and activities that may have resulted in the exposure to airborne asbestos fibres.
Toxicity (or Dose-response) Assessment
Review information on the toxicity of asbestos to humans in order to determine a relationship between the dose received and the incidence of an adverse health effect particularly with respect to short term occupational settings.
Exposure Assessment
Identifies anyone who may have been exposed to asbestos and then estimates the likely exposure to asbestos for each of the significant exposure routes.
Risk Characterisation and Evaluation
Incorporates the exposure assessment and toxicity assessment in order to characterise or evaluate the potential for adverse health effects and provide an overall assessment of risk.
The relationship between disturbance of an asbestos containing material (ACM) or debris containing asbestos to airborne asbestos fibre exposure is circumstantial and the exact exposure could only ever be known at the time of disturbance.
