Radiation Safety

 

We can provide a short term or long-term Radiation Safety Officer cover for your program.

​

WHAT IS RADIATION? 

Radiation is simply a form of energy. It is around us all the time. Radiation comes from atoms, which are the building blocks of all matter.

​

Although “radiation” is associated with danger and illnesses like cancer, radiation is not necessarily harmful. For example, the sun is a source of radiation: a sunburn is a mild radiation burn. However, the hazards that come to mind when you think of radiation are most often associated with what is called “ionizing radiation”. We are all exposed to ionizing radiation every day. These include watching television, having an X-ray or wearing certain luminous dial watches.

​

When employees use materials that give off radiation, the employer is legally required to ensure the employee is aware of the hazards associated with the task.
