Module 10.2: Practical Factors
Instructor's Notes
D. Introduction
Prior knowledge of radiological conditions can reduce
unnecessary personnel exposure. Using proper radiological
techniques and information provided by Radiological
Control personnel will help ensure a safe working
environment for all employees.
Each site shall develop a practical factors evaluation for
High Radiation Radiation Areas (as applicable). The site
may choose to incorporate the High Radiation Area
practical factor into the Radiological Worker I practical
factors, or develop a separate practical factors lesson for
High Radiation Areas.
