The course on radiation safety is primarily directed to the safety of workers,
members of the public and the environment by emphasising aspects of radiation
protection, in line with the requirement of the Atomic Energy Licensing Act 1984.
The increasing use of ionising radiation in various sectors demands a
comprehensive implementation of the Atomic Energy Licensing Act which requires
