'''The System of Radiological Protection contributes to an appropriate level of protection from harmful [[Effects of Exposure]] to [[Ionising Radiation]]. [[Objectives of Radiological Protection]] are defined for both people and the environment.'''
* doing more good than harm (the justification principle),
* keeping doses as low as reasonably achievable (the optimisation principle), and
* ensuring no person receives an unacceptably high dose (the limitation principle).
These principles are universal, but various [[Exposure Categories and Situations]] are defined to help apply them most effectively in different circumstances.
It forms the basis of standards, regulations, guidance, programmes, and practice, worldwide.
The System of Radiological Protection overall is described in [http://www.icrp.org/publication.asp?id=[ICRP%20Publication%20103 ICRP ''Publication 103'']].
