Risk characterization and evaluation aims at making judgement about risk acceptabilityand/or tolerability. This step follows after the appraisal stage and is undertaken in order to serve two main purposes: 1.First, to reach a balanced, value-based judgement on the tolerability/acceptabilityof risk or to perform a trade-off analysis of a set of functional equivalents (ofthe product, process, or practice under consideration). 2. Second, to initiate (if deemed necessary) a management process and make preliminary suggestions for the most suitable management approach.
