Abstract

The Ionising Radiation Regulations of 1999 state that all employers undertaking work with ionising radiation must monitor the levels of that radiation within the workplace. This Good Practice Guide describes the recommended procedures for the examination, testing and calibration of portable dose rate and surface contamination monitors that can be used to comply with those statutory obligations.
