Description
This Guide outlines the parameters of Alberta’s Radiation Protection Program, which is established under the Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) Act. The OHS Code (which falls under the OHS Act) places an obligation on employers to ensure that all designated radiation equipment has a valid registration certificate before the equipment may be used at a work site. This Guide explains how a registration certificate is issued, including the role of radiation inspection and registration agencies, and Government of Alberta staff within the process.
