Background
B. Module Overview
Radiological Work Permits (RWP) used to control access into areas controlled for radiological
purposes will be addressed. In addition, radiological requirements for working in these areas
will be presented.
C. Objectives Review
D. Introduction
The previous modules discussed some important radiological topics from a theoretical
perspective. The current module will discuss the application of this theory to control
radiological work in a safe but efficient manner.

MODULE OUTLINE
A. Radiological Work Permits (RWPs)
1.
Purpose of RWPs
RWPs may be used to establish radiological controls for entry into areas controlled for
radiological purposes. They serve to:
a.
Inform workers of area radiological conditions.
b.
Inform workers of entry requirements.
c.
Provide a record relating radiation doses to specific work activities.
2.
Types of RWPs
The type of RWP used will depend on the radiological conditions in the area.
a.
General Radiological Work Permit
1)
This should be used to control routine or repetitive activities such as tours and
inspections or minor work activities in areas with well characterized, stable
radiological conditions.
2)
General RWPs should not be approved for periods longer than 1 year.
3)
Examples of use
