Challenges in Implementing Occupational Radiation Protection in Latin America

Creators

  • 1. Institute of Radiation Protection and Dosimetry (Brazil)

Description

I think that all stakeholders involved in any way with the use of material or radioactive substances should share the challenges to the implementation of occupational radiation protection in Latin America. Who are these actors? Stakeholders? Workers: Let us start with the workers. We speak on behalf of worker protection and can hardly see the region associations that are looking to seriously participate in the debate on occupational radiation protection. In most cases the aim is only financial benefits, these entities do not see the employer as a partner.
