Good morning
I have been asked about an acronym ALARP, mentioned in a customers risk assessment, and what it meant. It is not one I have come across. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks for your help

As low as reasonably practicable.

I suggest it refers to e.g. occupational exposure of hazardous substances.
