Write procedures for radiation protection at work that can be followed under real operating pressure.
Radiation Protection in Specialised Work Environments
Practical training in radiation protection at work, grounded in real cases and applied to your own operation.
Course Overview
Regulators judge radiation protection at work on evidence of application, not on the existence of a document. A procedure for protection at work that people cannot follow under time pressure is not a control. They gain the ability to sequence improvements to this area of occupational health and safety in an order their organisation can absorb. Most organisations already have a policy on radiation protection at work; far fewer can show it working. The material serves both public bodies and commercial organisations dealing with the occupational health and safety discipline. Benchmarking exercises repeatedly place protection at work among the areas with the widest performance spread. The programme is built to be used, and every section of radiation protection at work it covers ends in something applicable. Work is grounded in real cases drawn from protection at work, which each participant adapts to conditions in their own organisation. The final session converts the week's work on the practice within occupational health and safety into commitments with owners and dates.
