Abstract
Fundamental data on the safety status is necessary to develop and operate the additional policies related to the radiation safety, however, few studies have been conducted to investigate the status quantitatively. In this study, out of the areas related to radiation safety, the status of the radiation worker, ambient radiation and the environmental radiation were examined in the quantitative aspect using diverse statistical methods. In the results of that, following information were obtained. First, out of the radiation workers engaged in 9 businesses as of end of 2014, the business having highest exposure dose is NDT showing significantly high than other businesses. Second, the average difference of the exposure doses in radiation workers in 9 businesses in 2014 compared to that in 2010 was not statistically significant at significance level of 5% (p=0.221). Third, the average of the environmental radiation in Gyeonggi-do was high than the Jeollabuk-do. The results of this study are anticipated to assist to utilize the basic data for the workers on radiational works, daily living radiation, and the safety control related to the environmental radiation, and to establish the policy of radiation protection in the future.
