Statutory surveillance for classified radiation workers under the Ionising Radiations Regulations 2017

The Ionising Radiations Regulations 2017 require classified radiation workers to be under medical surveillance by an HSE-appointed doctor. Our team holds the necessary appointments and provides assessments at first classification, annually thereafter, and following any incident requiring review.

Each examination considers individual dose history, organ-specific effects, and overall fitness to continue classified work.

What's included

  • Comprehensive medical examination
  • Review of dose records and exposure history
  • Blood tests where clinically indicated
  • Assessment of fitness for classified work
  • Statutory health record maintained for 50 years
  • Clear certification and recommendations

Who it's for

Employers in medical imaging and radiotherapy, nuclear, industrial radiography, research and academic institutions, and any operation where workers are classified under IRR 2017.
