Possible risk considerations for toxic risk assessment.
The concepts of 'negligible', 'tolerable' and 'unacceptable' risk are considered in the context of 'voluntary' and 'involuntary' risks. Levels of risk for different ill health consequences are examined in relation to the various types of risk associated with standard setting and, in particular, for standards relevant to workplace ill-health.
