Abstract
Industry has a major role in the assessment and management of risk to society from its operations. Much of the basic knowledge of manufacturing operations, product distribution, use and ultimate disposal of products and byproducts resides in industry. Basic data on the health and environmental effects of materials in commerce has been generated by industry. This information must be utilized in the evaluation of risk so that appropriate management decisions can be made. Experience gained in the industrial sector with risk assessment and management should be of value to government in its oversight role on behalf of society. There is growing realization in both industry and government of the need for more effective communication of risk to the general public in the context of management decisions.
