Health Physics Questions and Answers - Question 37

Question 37: Is it necessary to document that employees have been advised of their annual doses? Is it sufficient to let employees see the results of the monitoring? Does posting doses on a bulletin board in a common area, each month, fulfill this requirement?

Answer: See 10 CFR 19.13 (a), which has not been revised. The licensee must provide a written report to each worker. The licensee may keep a copy of the report, or other appropriate record, on file to document compliance.

(Reference: 10 CFR 19.13)
