OEBs and OELs for APIs: Occupational Exposure Banding and Occupational Exposure Limits to Support Pharmaceutical Manufacturing

In the manufacturing of active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) and products there is a need to conduct qualitative and/or quantitative health-based risk assessments for occupational safety purposes. When performed from an occupational standpoint, qualitative health-based risk assessments involve the categorization (“banding”) of the API based on toxicity and potency, which provides a measure of relative hazard. Alternatively, quantitative occupational health-based risk assessments involve the development of Occupational Exposure Limits (OELs), “safe” or acceptable concentrations of contaminants in the air, which allow the contract manufacturing organization and/or the drug innovator to quantitatively assess worker exposure potential through industrial hygiene air monitoring. This webinar will provide a summary on the global landscape of occupational exposure risk assessment and highlight the differences between banding and calculating an OEL.
