3) Hazard score
4) Exposure score
5) Persistence/Bioaccumulation Score
6) Hazard assessment value
7) High risk substance
8) Concern of Risk
Portion of the Hazard Score
Mr. Hashimoto, President of HS-TECH ENGINEERING Co., Ltd. will deliver two presentations on Thai chemicals regulations in Tokyo, particularly he is thinking of focousing too much on core elements of Risk Assessment (RA) Methods whose system will be applied both existing chemicals and new chemicals which have fallen under some criteria, designated by the Department of Industrial Works (DIW).
The core elements of the RA are;
1) Priority List
2) Toxic List
3) Hazard score
4) Exposure score
5) Persistence/Bioaccumulation Score
6) Hazard assessment value
7) High risk substance
8) Concern of Risk
Portion of the Hazard Score

| Oral (mg/kg/day) | <50 | 50-250 | >250 |
| Dermal (mg/kg/day) | <100 | 100-500 | >500 |

| Inhalation (mist/dust) (mg/L/day) | <0.1 | 0.1-0.5 | >0.5 |
The Risk Assessment Procedure might require importers / manufacturers to conduct human and environmental risk assessment through the core elements and to prepare risk assessment report.
Two times of session for one and half hour seminar, organized by a publishing company will be held in the afternoon of April 13.
