In the European Union, Directive 92/32/EC and EC Council Regulation (EC) 793/93 require the risk assessment of new and existing substances, respectively. Principles for this risk assessment have been laid down, supported by a detailed package of Technical Guidance Documents. Against this background the European Union System for the Evaluation of Substances (EUSES) has been developed. This software can be used to carry out tiered risk assessments of increasing complexity on the basis of increasing data requirements. The exposure assessment, effects assessment and risk characterisation are carried out for environmental populations as well as for human beings, including workers, consumers and man exposed through the environment. EUSES is the result of a co-ordinated effort of EU Member States, the European Commission and the European Chemical Industry.
在欧盟,92/32/EC号指令和欧盟理事会第793/93号(EC)法规分别要求对新物质和现有物质进行风险评估。已经制定了风险评估原则,并辅以一套详细的技术指导文件。在此背景下,开发了欧盟物质评估系统(EUSES)。该软件可用于根据不断增加的数据要求,对日益复杂的情况进行分层风险评估。针对环境群体以及人类(包括工人、消费者和通过环境接触的人)进行暴露评估、效应评估和风险特征描述。EUSES是欧盟成员国、欧盟委员会和欧洲化学工业共同努力的成果。
