Abstract
The Radiation Protection Services (RPS) group at ANSTO are required to provide a high quality radiation protection advice and assurance service to multiple types of facilities (nuclear reactor, linear accelerators,
cyclotrons, radiopharmaceutical production, multiple research departments and others) which give rise to a diverse range of ionising radiation safety challenges. In order to maintain high standards and recognise
development opportunities to ensure that best practices are employed the RPS group developed a Strategic Operational Plan to identify continuous improvement opportunities to maintain “best practice” in radiation
protection within this diverse organisation. This presentation will explore some of those opportunities to ensure continuous improvement in radiation protection practices at ANSTO.
