Hazard Assessment - Project Safety Plans
Before starting any work with radiation researchers must complete a Project Safety Plan (PSP) which highlights the hazards and risks associated with all aspects of the research program and allows consideration to be given towards specific requirements such as protective measures, training, storage facilities, waste disposal methods, emergency procedures and management licence upgrades. The PSP should be reviewed annually as a minimum, and from time to time as required when changes occur to equipment, operators or work practices.
PSPs should be filled out by the Project Leader in conjunction with the Project Manager, and must be approved by the Area Manager and Radiation Safety Officer before any work commences.
Further details are available in section 5 of the Radiation Management Plan.
