While rodents probably serve as the most utilized safety testing animal model for human health protection, there are limitations that are important to recognize. Beyond fundamental xenogenic differences with humans that can result in species differences in pharmacokinetics and actions of certain chemicals, rodent and human immune development does not proceed on an identical timeline. Landreth (2002) and Landreth and Dodson (2005) have shown that some events that occur gestationally in humans happen postnatally in rodents. This may be a consideration if limited exposure windows are utilized or if the maternally transferred exposure in rodents could not simulate the appropriate human fetal exposure. Therefore, knowledge of drug metabolism and the... 

When relevant human data are available, the 0-fo d factor for intcrspecics variability may not be necessary. However, relatively few parameters are studied in humans in the assessment of pesticide safety, and data on carcinogenicity, reproduction, and chronic effects are rarely available, Consequently, JMPR rarely utilizes safety factors as low as 10-fold. ADIs of selected OP and CM pesticides are summarized in Table 2.

A safety manual is a written document that includes the utility s policies and practices. The utilitys safety manager is usually in charge of creating the manual with input from the safety committees. New employees should be introduced to the manual during their training session and given an incentive to read it carefully. 

Training should be available to all new employees, especially on first aid, equipment operation, and the utilit s safety policies before going to the field to work. The utilitys safety manual provides the foundation of the training, and new employees should be given the manual as part of a new employee orientation. The manual should be reviewed as part of the orientation.

This means that safety assessment practices can also be enhanced and automated by using last safety assessment results conducted on the same part of the plant and/or utilize safety assessment results conducted in similar plants. 

Utilize safety latches on crane hooks. Ensure that all lifting devices are seated properly on the hook and that the safety latch is in place. 

System trouble/anomaly reports By the time the system is in operation, hazards identified earlier in the life cycle are expected to be either eliminated or reduced to an acceptable level. The SSMP must monitor system anomalies or other reported forms of trouble and utilize safety personnel to reconunend corrective action if those hazards fall out of the acceptable range.
