Construction of TEMPEST - Stage 8
Collate and validate exposure estimates into the final TEMPEST Task Exposure Matrix for Pesticides database
Following the independent assessments by the two hygienists the results were compared:
Together the hygienists reviewed those assessments where there was a difference of greater than 1 point (n=132) and reached agreement on these to produce a final agreed TEM that had complete agreement in 52.0% (n=880) of the assessments and 1 point of difference for the remaining 48.0% (n=812).
The final TEM was then produced by merging the two sets of results together. In any cells where there remained a 1 point difference, the TEM was set to the use the higher of the two scores from the assessors.
