Assess occupational biological hazards under EU Directive 2000/54/EC: identify agents and their classification group (1–4), assess exposure per job role by route, frequency and intentionality, derive the risk level and required containment level (CL1–CL4), get engineering / administrative / PPE controls, and build a vaccination, health-surveillance and post-exposure plan. Exports to Word and Excel.
Search ~40 common occupational agents. Click an agent to add it to your assessment. Classification groups follow Directive 2000/54/EC Annex III.
Describe how a job role is exposed to a selected agent. Each scenario becomes a row in the risk register and the exposure register.
Risk and required containment are derived from the agent's classification group and the exposure scenario. Containment maps the agent group to a level (CL1–CL4); the mandatory controls below are generated from that level.
Vaccination availability and the need for health surveillance depend on the agents and roles. Tick what applies; an automatic plan is suggested below from your agents.
⚠️ This is a screening tool to structure a biological-agent risk assessment under Directive 2000/54/EC — it is not a substitute for advice from an occupational physician, biosafety officer or competent authority. Agent classifications follow the Directive's Annex III but national lists and editions evolve; verify the current classification, required containment level and notification duties with your national list and authority. Vaccination, surveillance and post-exposure decisions are medical and must be made by qualified health professionals. Group 3/4 work requires a formal biorisk-management programme.
