          Protecting workers from radon – experiences from Austria

          Webinar

          Presenters: Valeria Gruber?

          Organized jointly with the European Radon Association (ERA)

          About the webinar

          Exposure to indoor radon is a major part of the overall exposure to ionising radiation for the public and for workers, particularly those who work at specific types of workplaces. The IAEA General Safety Requirements Radiation Protection and Safety of Radiation Sources (GSR Part 3) includes provisions on radon protection. This webinar will introduce GSR Part 3 requirements related to radon in the workplace and highlight examples and experiences of workplace radon measurement in Austria. The webinar will include discussions on lessons learned, best practices and challenges.?

          Although there were no regulations or obligations for radon measurements in public buildings or schools and kindergartens in Austria, measurements started already in the late 1990s. About 950 schools and 700 kindergartens and 440 town halls have been surveyed in Austria so far. The focus has been mainly in Upper Austria, which is an area with elevated geogenic radon potential. With a new directive in effect since 2008, workplaces with potentially elevated radon exposures, including water works, underground workplaces, tourist mines and caves as well as radon spas, need to be monitored.

          Learning objectives

          During the webinar, participants will learn about:

          • Requirements for radon in workplaces in the IAEA GSR Part 3;?
          • How to monitor radon in workplaces – based on selected Austrian examples; and,
          • Lessons learned, best practices and challenges in monitoring radon in workplaces – based on Austrian experience.
