Abstract
This Resolutin, comprising 4 articles, establishes radiation dose limits for planned occupational and public exposures resulting from controlled radiation practices. Licensees must implement adequate measures to prevent exceeding these limits, including limits for radiation workers, trainees and students, and the general public. The limits specify maximum effective and equivalent doses for the whole body, eye lens, skin, and extremities, while requiring additional protection measures for pregnant and breastfeeding workers to ensure adequate protection of the fetus or infant. The competent radiation protection authority may also take necessary measures to ensure that public exposure limits are not exceeded. The attachment defines key radiation protection terms, including types of exposure, radiation doses, dose limits, and weighting factors used to assess radiation risks and establish protection requirements.
