Webinar on the updated OPEX Calculator

Background

EFSA’s Guidance on the assessment of exposure of operators, workers, residents and bystanders in risk assessment of plant protection products (OPEX Guidance) was published in 2022, together with the annexed calculator (OPEX Calculator, for more info see here). The OPEX Calculator has recently been updated to correct mistakes, and to increase its flexibility of use thanks to additional functionalities and ad hoc reporting. 

Objectives of the meeting

EFSA has hosted a dedicated webinar focusing on the updated OPEX Calculator, with the aim to present the new functionalities and provide instructions and clarifications on how to use it. Moreover, an overview of the OPEX project for the update of the Guidance was also provided.

During the webinar participants had the opportunity to send questions via a dedicated chat box, which were answered during the presentation.
