2020 Virtual PDC: Beyond Banding – Estimating Health-Based Limits for Data Poor Chemicals | |
Thursday, June 4, 2020 2:00 PM ET - 6:00 PM ET Earn 3.5 Contact Hours Because of the industrial and commercial use of thousands of chemicals, IH professionals and others are frequently tasked with developing risk assessments for substances without a quantitative occupational exposure limit (OEL). A significant effort to fill this gap has focused on OEL derivation and occupational exposure banding (OEB) methods. However, for many chemicals in commerce, these methods are not a viable option because there is little or no data available on the chemicals' health hazards. This PDC will: a) build on the foundations of the hierarchy of OELs; b) teach how to navigate existing data resources and relevant tools for developing health-based occupational limits for chemicals that lack toxicology data; and c) address three methods (read-across, threshold of toxicological concern (TTC), hazard correlation). The skills provided will strengthen the participants' ability to establish relevant limits and evaluate their workplaces.
