Illustration of Exposure Risk Assessment and Management related to anticipation, recognition, evaluation, control and confirm.<unk>  (United States: industrial<unk>  (IH)) is the anticipation, recognition, evaluation, control, and confirmation of protection from hazards at work that may result in injury, illness, or affect the well being of workers. These hazards or stressors are typically divided into the categories biological, chemical, physical, ergonomic and psychosocial. The risk of a health effect from a given stressor is a function of the hazard multiplied by the exposure to the individual or group. For chemicals, the hazard can be understood by the dose response profile most often based on toxicological studies or models.<unk> sts work closely with toxicologists (see Toxicology) for understanding chemical hazards, physicists (see Physics) for physical hazards, and physicians and microbiologists for biological hazards (see Microbiology Tropical medicine Infection) Environmental and<unk> sts are considered experts in exposure science and exposure risk management. Depending on an individual's type of job, a<unk> st will apply their exposure science expertise for the protection of workers, consumers and/or communities.
