Global webinar - Environmental Risk Assessment Toolkit
Background
The Environment, Health and Safety Division of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) assists countries in developing and implementing policies and instruments to strengthen national chemicals management, while protecting human health and the environment.
In the framework of developing and harmonising methods for assessing risk to human health and the environment, including methodologies for hazard and exposure assessment, the Environmental Risk Assessment (ERA) Toolkit gives to interested countries and users access to practical tools on environmental risk assessment of chemicals. The Toolkit describes the general work flow of environmental risk assessment and provides examples as well. Links to relevant tools developed by OECD and member countries are also provided.
