Who needs to be monitored?

If you work in an environment where you may be exposed to ionising radiation, you may need to be monitored.

How do I comply?

Section 3.2.5 of the Code for Radiation Protection for Planned Exposure Situations (RPS C-1) states that:

The Responsible Person must arrange for appropriate radiation monitoring to the extent necessary to:

  • demonstrate the effectiveness of the measures for protection and safety
  • assess external radiation doses.

To arrange personal radiation monitoring for your workplace, complete this online form to register with PRMS

If you’re unsure which monitor type(s) you need, see the types of monitors we provide.

Once your application is processed, we’ll contact you with everything you need to get started.

Regulatory requirements

Regulatory requirements may vary across Commonwealth, state, and territory jurisdictions in Australia. Contact your State/Territory regulatory authority to confirm the specific requirements for your workplace.
