Risk assessment An empirically based paradigm that estimates the risk of adverse effects) from exposure of an individual or population to a chemical, physical or biological agent. It includes the components of hazard identification, assessment of dose-response relationships, exposure assessment and risk characterization. 

Dr. Frank P. Lees s Loss Prevention in the Process Industries Hazard Identification, Assessment and Control, Second Edition, ISBN 0750615478. This is a three-volume set published by Butterworth-Heinemann, Oxford, UK, 1996. Dr. Frank Lees s epic three-volume masterpiece is without a doubt the premier source of practical and statistical process safety reference material. Within the 3,962 pages of valuable facts, nearly every aspect of process safety is covered. The information is useful to process safety engineers, engineers in the process industries, insurance professionals,... 

As described in a highly referenced document (NRC, 1983), important components of this process include hazard identification, assessment of exposure and dose-response relationships, and characterization of the risk. Uncertainty factors are built into the risk assessment process to account for variations in individual susceptibility, extrapolation of data from studies in laboratory animals to humans (i.e. interspecies variation in toxicokinetics), and extrapolation from high-dose to low-dose exposures. In the case of the association between exposure to chemicals and drugs and autoimmunity or autoimmune diseases, much of the information needed to evaluate risk in the context of the traditional United States National Research Council paradigm is not available. The following represents a discussion of issues in chemical-induced autoimmunity relevant to the use of existing data and data needs in risk assessment.

Over the years there have been several comprehensive hazard identification studies carried out on railway systems in the UK that could be utilised to avoid the need for further detailed hazard identification assessments. It has, however, still been necessary to develop a full list of hazardous events and their associated precursors for inclusion in the SRM.
