Radiological FAQs

When selecting a radiological risk management partner, consider the following factors:

Expertise and qualifications of their RPA, RWA, and RPS staff
Experience in your specific industry and understanding of your unique challenges
Range and flexibility of services offered to meet your needs
Commitment to quality, safety, and environmental stewardship

Reputation and track record of success in managing radiological risks

Our radiation protection team excels in these areas. With Lucion, you can be confident that your radiological risks will be managed effectively, allowing you to focus on your core business activities.

Optimising radiation protection involves implementing the ALARP (As Low As Reasonably Practicable) principle. This means taking all reasonable steps to minimise radiation exposure while considering factors such as cost, feasibility, and societal benefits. Strategies for optimising radiation protection include:

Conducting thorough risk assessments
Implementing engineering controls and personal protective equipment
Providing regular training and communication to employees
Monitoring and reviewing exposure data to identify improvement opportunities
Engaging with Radiation Protection Advisers and other experts to ensure best practices are followed

NORM can pose significant risks to workers, the public, and the environment if not managed properly. Industries such as oil and gas, mining, and water treatment may encounter elevated levels of NORM, which can lead to increased radiation exposure and the need for specialised handling and disposal procedures.

Effective NORM management is essential to minimise these risks and ensure compliance with environmental and safety regulations.

To ensure compliance with UK radiation protection regulations, such as IRR17 and The Environmental Permitting (England and Wales) Regulations 2016 (EPR16), it is essential to work with qualified Radiation Protection Advisers (RPAs) and Radioactive Waste Advisers (RWAs).

Our radiation experts help you interpret and apply the regulations to your specific circumstances, develop compliant radiation protection programs, and provide ongoing guidance and support to maintain compliance.

A comprehensive radiological risk management program should include the following key elements:

Risk assessment and analysis
Development and implementation of control measures
Monitoring and measurement of radiation exposures
Training and communication
Emergency preparedness and response
Regulatory compliance management
Continuous improvement and review

Radiological risk management is crucial for any industry that works with ionising radiation sources or manages radioactive waste.

Effective risk management helps protect your employees, the public, and the environment from the harmful effects of radiation exposure while ensuring compliance with legal requirements and industry best practices. Failing to manage radiological risks adequately can lead to serious health and safety incidents, regulatory penalties, and reputational damage.
