Safety 15


Safety 15 :

See: Nuclear Safety And Protection And Safety. In the Fundamental Safety Principles (Safety Fundamentals), the generalized usage in this particular text of the term safety (i.e. to mean protection and safety) is explained as follows (Ref., paras 3.1 and 3.2): “3.1. For the purposes of this publication, ‘safety’ means the protection of people and the environment against radiation risks, and the safety of facilities and activities that give rise to radiation risks. ‘Safety’ as used here and in the IAEA safety standards includes the safety of nuclear installations, radiation safety, the safety of radioactive waste management and safety in the transport of radioactive material; it does not include non-radiation-related aspects of safety. 3.2. “Safety is concerned with both radiation risks under normal circumstances and radiation risks as a consequence of incidents4, as well as with other possible direct consequences of a loss of control over a nuclear reactor core, nuclear chain reaction, radioactive source or any other source of radiation. Safety measures include actions to prevent incidents and arrangements put in place to mitigate their consequences if they were to occur.”
