Health Risk Assessment as Input to Design

The paper will give an overview of how health risk assessment<br>as input to design can contribute to better and safer work<br>places with low health risk. This is based on the current<br>practice in the Norwegian petroleum industry, focusing on<br>health risk assessment and challenges in the working<br>environment from the early design phases. Furthermore the<br>paper describes how possible health risk and future working<br>environment conditions at the plant during operations are<br>assessed systematically during design and construction.
