Low, 20 or less

A Fine & Kinney score of 20 or less. Very limited risk, acceptable.

Very limited risk, acceptable.

A score of 20 or less means the combination of product, use and protection at this workplace carries very little risk. No extra measures are needed.

What it asks of you

  • Keep the measures that produced this score in place. A Low score that relies on Adequate controls or a Closed system is only Low as long as those controls work.
  • Reassess when something changes: a new SDS revision with other H-statements, more frequent use, or a change in the protection people use.

Example

A product with H315 and H319 has an effect of 3 + 3 = 6. It is used Occasionally (1.5) with Adequate controls (0.51):

6 × 1.5 × 0.51 = 4.6, Low.
