Using the [[ICRPædia Guide to Dose Coefficients|dose coefficient]] for most circumstances of occupational exposure, breathing air with 50 [[Radon: Units of Measure|Bq/m³]] of radon (a typical worldwide value in buildings) for one year at work (2000 hours) gives an [[Absorbed, Equivalent, and Effective Dose|effective dose]] of 0.7 mSv. For working indoors doing substantial physical activity, or for exposures in tourist caves, the recommended [[ICRPædia Guide to Dose Coefficients|dose coefficient]] is higher, so breathing air with 50 [[Radon: Units of Measure|Bq/m³]] of radon for one year at work gives an [[Absorbed, Equivalent, and Effective Dose|effective dose]] of 1.4 mSv.
