Abstract

This study was conducted to compare the value of the working environment measurement with the expectedexposure value drawn by using a program, thereby going to investigate whether it is available to the riskassessment of domestic workplace. We used the ECETOC TRA program which is one of the exposurepredictive models. Four kinds of substances were measured in two workplace which was exposed to organicsolvents and one kind of substance was measured in three workplace which was exposed to dusts and then anexposure assessment of chemical risk factors was conducted. The result value of the working environmentmeasurement, solid substance exceeded standard in one site, and it was found that the other solid and liquidsubstances were within the standard. The value of the exposure assessment program showd the same result; itwas higher than the value of the working environment measurement, suggesting that due to its nature, theexposure assessment program is run only on the worst situation. Therefore, it was found that when theexposure assesment program is used, variables should be substituted only after accurately assessing theworkplace and it is a good idea to assess the risk beforehand with the exposure assessment program in thecase of the workplace which employs no more than 5 people and where it is hard to assess the workingenvironment.
