General Radiation Safety Practices

Field personnel should adhere to the safe work practices outlined in the General Work Practices section and the three guidelines listed below:
  • Do not enter areas of radioactive material use, unless accompanied by a site representative. Ensure that all criteria for entry into such laboratories have been met (e.g., use of a thermo-luminescent dosimeter (TLD) and personal protective equipment)
  • Dispose of all contaminated waste in the appropriate radioactive waste can
  • Immediately report all wounds, spills, or emergencies to the site radiation safety officer, and follow the proper emergency procedures.
