A person having ability in radiation protection: an original measure in comparison with the common rights for work safety

  • 1. Office de Protection contre les Rayonnements Ionisants, 78 - le Vesinet (France)

Description

In accordance with the regulations, any factory using ionising radiations is obliged to designate a person having having ability in radiation protection and entrusted with specific missions regarding safety for professional risks. This represents an original measure in comparison with the common rights for work safety. The decree whose became operative on 2 october 1986, about ten years ago and just before the reform of radiation protection standards, it seems important to store in memory the genesis and the goals of this prescription and to present the results.
