Abstract:
Objective:To explore and ascertain the current situation and developmental trend of occupational radiation diseases prevention and control in non-medical institutions in Jiangsu province, including types of radiation hazards, occupational health training and health examinations for radiation workers, and radiation levels in the workplace.Methods:In response to the monitoring plan developed by the National Institute for Radiological Protection, China CDC, a comprehensive survey was conducted of the basic situation and occupational health management of radiation occupation categories in 13 prefecture level cities and 95 counties (cities, regions) of non-medical institutions in the province in 2022. The monitoring result were obtained mainly through delivering questionnaires or the relevant information for cross comparing from the relevant regulatory bodies, and meanwhile were compared with previous data, tested on site and checked for quality control ampmt other things. After confirmation, data was filled out on the National Radiological Health Information Platform. The main contents of the survey include the number of radiation workers, personal dose monitoring, training status, occupational health examinations, personal protective equipment, etc.Results:By the end of 2022, there was a total of 26 478 radiation workers at 2 124 radiation workpalces in non-medical institutions in Jiangsu province, of which 25 054 radiation workers having received personal dose monitoring. with a monitoring frequency of 94.62%. In recent years, 24 305 radiation workers have participated in radiation protection training, with a training rate of 91.79% and 25 293 ones undergone occupational health examinations, with a examination frequency of 95.52%. The radiation levels monitored in the workplace meet national requirements.Conclusions:The number of non-medical institutions and radiation workers in Jiangsu province is relatively large and mainly distributed in the south Jiangsu. The coverage rate of personal dose monitoring, radiation protection training, and occupational health examinations for radiation workers exceeds 90%, higher than the national average. However, there is still a certain gap from full coverage. In the future, the supervision and management level of occupational disease prevention and control should be improved, and the health level of radiation workers in non-medical institutions should be monitored without blind spots.
