General advice
- OSL monitors are issued with clips at the commencement of the service. Please retain these clips for your next OSL monitor. Return OSL monitors at the end of each wearing period without the clip.
- With each dispatch of personal radiation monitors a control monitor is supplied to measure natural background radiation and environmental effects. This is used in conjunction with the worker's monitor to determine the worker's occupational dose.
- Uranium and mineral sands miners should discuss the need for extra control monitors when you apply.
