And what it means for your business.
Yes, you are. Radon can easily enter workplaces and there is legislation to ensure concentrations are kept at a safe level. The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations require employers to complete a radon risk assessment if they occupy a radon affected area or have an occupied basement area. The Ionising Radiation Regulations (IRR99) require remedial action if the radon level exceeds 400 Becquerels in a workplace or 200 Becquerels in a domestic environment (such as a room in a care home). The regulations require employees to be notified if these levels are exceeded and appoint someone to oversee protection measures. We can help with this.

Radon Action is here to tackle radon gas in affected areas across the UK, actively driving action through education, monitoring and prevention helping to protect people from its harmful affects. But what is radon? Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that comes from the decay of uranium found in small quantities in all soil and rocks. You can’t taste it, smell it and it has no colour. Ordinarily it’s not harmful, dispersing harmlessly into the air. But when it’s present in confined spaces, it can rise to extremely harmful levels and over time, cause lung cancer.
