Low-level exposures to hazardous substances and exposures to emerging chemicals of concern can give rise to health claims that, in turn, raise recurring questions about whether, when, how, and by whom risk information should be provided.

Join Raina Shah, a leading warnings expert in chemical hazard communication, for this session of Secretariat’s Human Factors webinar series, which will examine how a human factors approach can inform questions of warning and risk communication when scientific understanding of a risk is evolving or disputed. Drawing on communication theory, information processing research, and the broader warnings literature, this session will provide a framework for evaluating these issues across a range of contexts, including environmental and occupational exposures, consumer products, personal care products, food-contact materials, and pharmaceuticals.
