Risk
As defined by Kaplan and Garrick, risk analysis consists of answering three specific questions:• what can happen?• what is the chance that it will happen? • if it happens, what are the consequences?.

Risk definition
Risks are defined as a function of the likelihood of infection by the agent and the likelihood of exposure through an infectious route based on the procedures and work practices and the consequences of disease assuming infection
![Page 4: Risk Assessment. Risk As defined by Kaplan and Garrick, risk analysis consists of answering three specific questions: what can happen? what is the chance](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070409/56649e755503460f94b76fce/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Biosafety risks is a function of:• likelihood of – infection by the agent– exposure through an infectious route
• consequences
![Page 5: Risk Assessment. Risk As defined by Kaplan and Garrick, risk analysis consists of answering three specific questions: what can happen? what is the chance](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070409/56649e755503460f94b76fce/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Definitions• Risk Assessment
– Identifying and exploring, preferably in quantified terms, the types, intensities and likelihood of the consequences related to a risk. Risk assessment comprises hazard identification and estimation, exposure and vulnerability assessment and risk estimation
• Risk Analysis– Risk assessment, risk management, and risk communication
• Risk Prevention– Measures to stop a risk being realized; typically means stopping the activity
giving rise to the risk
• Risk Reduction– Measures to reduce the level of risk, for example by reducing the likelihood
of the risk being realized or reducing the impact of the risk

Characteristics• risk assessment is CAREFUL judgment• risk assessment is proactive rather than reactive• assessments can be qualitative, semi-quantitative or quantitative• risk assessment methodology should be:
– identified– implemented– maintained
• risk assessment is first step to control (reduce or eliminate) the hazards
• risk assessment will provide a guide for the selection of appropriate - biosafety levels needs- microbiological practices- safety equipment- facility safeguards

Assess the capability of the laboratory staff to control hazards
- training- technical proficiency- good habits of all members of the laboratory- operational integrity of containment equipment- facility safeguards

New risk assessment orreview of an existing one when:
• the introduction of new biological agents• new work or changes to the programme of
work• alterations to work flow or volume• new construction / modifications to
laboratories, equipment or its operation• introduction of altered and unplanned staffing
arrangements

New risk assessment orreview of an existing one when:
• significant alterations to Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) or working practices (e.g. disinfection/waste management methodologies, PPE provision / usage entry/exit protocols, etc.);
• unexpected events that may have relevance for the management of biorisks are observed

New risk assessment orreview of an existing one when:
• actual or potential non-conformity with internal / external rules and regulations is identified
• as part of the existing management system review process (e.g. annually or at another appropriate and predetermined frequency)
![Page 13: Risk Assessment. Risk As defined by Kaplan and Garrick, risk analysis consists of answering three specific questions: what can happen? what is the chance](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070409/56649e755503460f94b76fce/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
4 scenarios
• Risk to individuals in the laboratory• Risk to an individual outside the laboratory
(the human community)• Risk to animals outside the laboratory (the
animal community)• Risks to humans and animals resulting from a
secondary exposure
![Page 14: Risk Assessment. Risk As defined by Kaplan and Garrick, risk analysis consists of answering three specific questions: what can happen? what is the chance](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070409/56649e755503460f94b76fce/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Risk Assessment
• Basis of all biosafety practices• Professional judgement• Assessment of:
– organisms – equipment – procedures to be employed,– animal models– containment equipment and facilities available
• Responsibility of Lab Director or Principal Investigator • Role of Biosafety Committee and Biosafety Officers
![Page 15: Risk Assessment. Risk As defined by Kaplan and Garrick, risk analysis consists of answering three specific questions: what can happen? what is the chance](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070409/56649e755503460f94b76fce/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Using a Risk Assessment Process
• A standardized biological risk assessment process allows the risk assessments to be:– Repeatable– Quantifiable
• A systematic, standardized approach should include:– Accepted criteria for assessing the risk– A standardized approach for evaluating the situation against the criteria (“scoring
system”)
• Ideally this process results in a system that:– Allows analysis of the risk to identify driving factors and allow better realization of
mitigation measures– Enables better communication of risk
• Help to define what is acceptable risk

Identify Key Factors For Assessing A Biosafety Risk
• Example 1: A laboratory researching resistance factors for Mycobacterium tuberculosis
• Example 2: A clinical laboratory conducting diagnostic tests for diarrheal diseases
• What are the key factors needed to conduct a risk assessment?– What factors define likelihood?– What factors define consequences?– What are the Agent factors?– What are the Procedure factors?

Laboratory Biosafety RiskRisk = F (Likelihood, Consequence)
• Likelihood -The likelihood of infection by the agent and the likelihood of exposure through an infectious route based on the procedures and work practices
• Inhalation• Percutaneous • Direct contact• Ingestion
• Consequences - Of disease from accidental exposure
• Risks - To laboratory workers• Researchers• Animal care workers• Technicians• Engineers
– Risk of accidental exposure to community– Risk of accidental exposure to animal community

Health and medical surveillance
• The employing authority, through the laboratory director, is responsible for ensuring that there is adequate surveillance of the health of laboratory personnel.
• The objective of such surveillance is to monitor for occupationally acquired diseases.
• Appropriate activities to achieve these objectives are:– Provision of active or passive immunization where indicated – Facilitation of the early detection of laboratory-acquired infection– Exclusion of highly susceptible individuals (e.g. pregnant women or
immunocompromised individuals) from highly hazardous laboratory work
– Provision of effective personal protective equipment and procedures
