E.3.8. Exposure estimates

This section enables to provide information on the exposure estimates related to production and use.

Set the confidentiality flag and regulatory purpose. For a description of these flags see chapter D.4.5.7 Flags used for filtering data.

Exposure related to production

Working environment: The most relevant moments of exposure related to production should be described (for instance during filling, weighing, cleaning activities, sampling for quality and process control, in case of irregularities, etc...). Also, the likely pattern of control (if requested by the legislation) could be provided here.

Indirect exposure to humans: Provide the information of the activities of workers related to the processes and the duration and frequency of their exposure to the substance (if available, enter details concerning the number of workers involved, level, route and duration and frequency of exposure, could be provided for both during the working period, and averaged over a longer period during working life). Also, the likely pattern of control (if requested by the legislation) could be provided here.

Environment: Describe the duration and frequency of emissions, of the substance to the different environmental compartments, and sewage treatment systems. The dilution in the receiving environmental compartment should be provided. Also, the likely pattern of control (if requested by the legislation) could be provided here.

Exposure related to use

Working environment: The most relevant moments of exposure related to the use should be described, for instance, during filling, weighing, cleaning activities, sampling for quality and process control, in case of irregularities, etc. Also, the likely pattern of control should be provided.

Consumers: The most relevant moments of exposure related to the final consumers should be described. Also, the likely pattern of control (if requested by the legislation) could be provided here.

Indirect exposure to humans: The most relevant moments of indirect exposure related to humans of the substance (i.e. along the supply chain) should be described. Also, the likely pattern of control (if requested by the legislation) could be provided here.

Environment: Describe the duration and frequency of emissions, of the substance to the different environmental compartments, and sewage treatment systems derived from the use of the substance. Also, the likely pattern of control (if requested by the legislation) could be provided here.
