Canadian biosafety guideline – local risk assessment .HP45-19/2018E-PDF

“Local Risk Assessment was developed by the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) as part of a series of electronic publications that expand upon the biosafety and biosecurity concepts discussed in the current edition of the Canadian Biosafety Handbook (CBH), the companion document to the Canadian Biosafety Standard (CBS). It describes best practices for conducting a local risk assessment in an organization where human or animal pathogens, toxins, or other regulated infectious material are handled or stored. This guideline is intended to assist regulated parties in meeting the requirements specified in the CBS, but should not be interpreted as requirements. Regulated parties may choose alternate approaches to meet the requirements specified in the CBS. This guideline is continuously evolving and subject to ongoing improvement”--Preface, p. v.
