→Radon Recommendations for Workplaces
'''Employers have an important role to play in reducing radon levels.'''
In most workplaces, exposure to radon is treated the same as in other buildings, by taking measurements, comparing radon levels to [[Radon For Governments and Employers#Radon Recommendations for Authorities|national reference levels for indoor radon]], and taking action if necessary.
In some workplaces, where levels are above the [[Radon For Governments and Employers#Radon Recommendations for Authorities|national reference levels for indoor radon]], doses to workers should be assessed, and protection should be [[Fundamental Principles of Radiological Protection|optimised]].
Where, despite all reasonable measures, doses to workers may exceed 10 mSv per year, employers should use protection requirements for [[Exposure Categories and Situations|occupational exposure]].
