Radiation:
Exposure to high levels of
radiation, much higher than permitted for staff working around radiation
sources, has been associated with cancer, birth defects, and other health
problems. At XXXXX, the main sources of radiation exposure include
laboratories, patients, and x-ray producing machines. The organization is
committed to keeping radiation exposures As Low As Reasonably
Achievable (ALARA). The ALARA program ensures that every activity
involving radiation is planned to minimize exposure for employees, students,
patients, and visitors.
