Exposure Result Review

Reviews sampling results statistically across a group, rather than judging single samples. Run after each sampling campaign. Carried out by a hygienist. The 95th percentile matters more than the average, because that is where overexposure hides.

What is an exposure result review?

An exposure result review is a review used in KnowHealth that reviews sampling results statistically across a group, rather than judging single samples. It is built against AIHA statistical guidance and forms part of the Occupational Health Surveillance programme.

When to use it

When to use it, and when not to

This review is one step in a larger programme. Using it for work that belongs to a neighbouring template produces records that are hard to report on later.

Use it for

  • The event or activity this review covers has occurred, or is about to
  • A new record is needed; each one gets its own ID in the form ERR-2026-000
  • You are running the Occupational Health Surveillance programme and this is one of its steps
  • A linked record needs this one to exist: links sampling records, seg

Not for

  • Similar Exposure Group Register, which groups workers who share the same tasks, agents and exposure patterns.
  • Qualitative Exposure Assessment, which rates likely exposure using professional judgement, task knowledge and existing data, before any sampling.
  • Personal Air Sampling Record, which records a sample taken from a worker's breathing zone over a shift.
  • Anything outside KnowHealth, which belongs in the workspace that owns that process

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is the exposure result review template based on?+

It is built against AIHA statistical guidance. AIHA is american Industrial Hygiene Association. Professional body publishing exposure assessment strategy and statistical guidance.

What sections does the exposure result review contain?+

There are 4 sections: header, data set, judgement, actions. Together they hold 40 fields, 28 of which are required.

How often is an exposure result review raised?+

A new record is raised at the review interval, and after any trigger event. Each one is given an ID in the form ERR-2026-000, so it can be traced and referenced from other records.

Which programme does the exposure result review belong to?+

It is part of Occupational Health Surveillance. A monitoring plan per exposure group, with surveillance findings feeding back into the controls.

How is an exposure result review scored?+

Scoring is exposure rating. High is bad. Scores exist to make the form tell you something, not to produce a percentage for its own sake.

Can the exposure result review template be changed?+

Yes. Every field, option, score and conditional rule is editable, and the links to other templates come with it. Most teams install it as it is, run it for a cycle, then adjust.

The agents

What the agents do with it

The form is the easy part. Keeping it current, routing it to the right owner and holding the evidence together is the work that actually slips.

KnowHealth

Holds the exposure result review library against your registers, routes each record to its owner, and keeps the evidence trail together.

Ella

Coordinates the crew, rolls completion and exceptions into one view, and holds every write for your approval before it touches a record.

This template lives in KnowHealthemployee wellbeing. Exposure monitoring, health surveillance, case management and return to work.

Register

Similar Exposure Group Register

Groups workers who share the same tasks, agents and exposure patterns. Built once and reviewed yearly. Maintained by the hygienist. Sampling one group member represents the whole group, which is what makes exposure monitoring affordable.

Assessment

Qualitative Exposure Assessment

Rates likely exposure using professional judgement, task knowledge and existing data, before any sampling. Run for each exposure group. Carried out by a hygienist. Decides which groups need sampling and which do not.

Record

Personal Air Sampling Record

Records a sample taken from a worker's breathing zone over a shift. Taken to the sampling plan. Carried out by a trained sampler with calibrated equipment. Results are compared against the occupational exposure limit for that substance.

Record

Area Monitoring Record

Records fixed point sampling in a work area rather than on a person. Taken to the monitoring plan. Carried out by a trained sampler. Useful for finding sources and checking ventilation, but does not replace personal sampling.

Record

Noise Dosimetry Record

Records a worker's noise exposure over a full shift using a personal dosimeter. Taken when noise may exceed the action level, and after changes. Carried out by a trained sampler. Drives hearing protection selection and hearing test requirements.

Assessment

Chemical Exposure Assessment

Assesses exposure to a specific chemical across the tasks where it is used. Run when a chemical is introduced and after process changes. Carried out by a hygienist. Combines sampling data with task observation and control effectiveness.
