  1. Human Health Risk Assessment When organizations want to understand the nature and probability of adverse health effects in humans who may be exposed to environmental stressors, such as chemicals and radiation, a Human Health Risk Assessment is performed. The common questions which are addressed in a Human Health Risk Assessment are: What types of health problems may be caused by environmental stressors? What is the chance that people will experience health problems when exposed to different levels of environmental stressors? Is there a level below which some chemicals don’t pose a human health risk? What environmental stressors are people exposed to, at what levels and for how long? Are some people more likely to be susceptible to environmental stressors because of factors such as age, genetics, pre-existing health conditions, ethnic practices, gender, etc.? Are some people more likely to be exposed to environmental stressors because of factors such as where they work, where they play, what they like to eat, etc.?

  2. Human Health Risk Assessments includes 4 basic steps: Hazard Identification- Examines whether a stressor has the potential to cause harm to humans and/or ecological systems, and if so, under what circumstances. Dose-Response Assessment- Examines the numerical relationship between exposure and effects. Exposure Assessment- Examines what is known about the frequency, timing, and levels of contact with a stressor? Risk Characterization- Examines how well the data support conclusions about the nature and extent of the risk from exposure to environmental stressors.
