Radiation safety

The goal of our operations is a radiation-safe Finland. Radiation safety is created as a result of the work of people who know their responsibilities. We work in good cooperation with other authorities, organizations and the entire surrounding society, both in Finland and internationally.

Current issues

The Radiation and Nuclear Safety Authority will measure the radioactivity of students and staff at the Kumpula campus of the University of Helsinki this week. Measurements will be carried out in Tampere next week and in Rovaniemi after the turn of the year.

People who use radiation in their work are mostly satisfied with the Radiation Act and the regulations clarifying the Act. However, according to a survey conducted by the Radiation and Nuclear Safety Authority, there is still room for improvement in the provision of information and instructions.
