Radiological Protection Ordinance
(RPO)

¹ The FOPH shall main­tain a Cent­ral Dose Re­gistry.

² The pur­pose of the Re­gistry is to re­cord the doses de­term­ined throughout the peri­od dur­ing which a per­son is oc­cu­pa­tion­ally ex­posed, in or­der to as­sess pos­sible in­sur­ance claims on this basis.

3 In ad­di­tion, the Re­gistry en­ables the su­per­vis­ory au­thor­it­ies:

a.

to re­view at any time the doses ac­cu­mu­lated per mon­it­or­ing peri­od for each oc­cu­pa­tion­ally ex­posed per­son in Switzer­land;

b.

to con­duct stat­ist­ic­al ana­lyses and eval­u­ate the ef­fect­ive­ness of the pro­vi­sions of this Or­din­ance;

c.

to en­sure data re­ten­tion.
