A simple exposure tool (SimET) was developed to identify substances on the DSL [Domestic Substances List] considered to represent GPE [greatest potential for exposure]. This approach was based on three lines of evidence: 1) quantity in commerce in Canada; 2) number of companies involved in commercial activities in Canada; and 3) the consideration by experts of the potential for human exposure based on various use codes.

On a mis au point un outil simple de détermination du risque d'exposition (SimET) afin d'identifier les substances de la LIS [Liste intérieure des substances] considérées comme présentant le PFoRE [plus fort risque d'exposition]. Cette approche se fonde sur trois sources de données : 1) la quantité que l'on trouve dans le commerce au Canada; 2) le nombre d'entreprises qui exercent des activités commerciales au Canada; 3) l'examen par des experts du risque d'exposition pour les humains, à l'aide de différents codes d'utilisation.
