Security of Radioactive Sources in Use and Storage

The purpose of this WINS International Best Practice Guide is to help you—as a senior manager, radiation safety officer, security specialist, radioactive source user or other stakeholder with the responsibility for the management or security of radioactive sources—understand and mitigate the risks arising from radioactive sources in use and storage.

This Guide also contains a Self-Assessment Questionnaire that can be used to answer questions about the effectiveness of your organisation’s management of the security and protection of radioactive sources in use and storage. The results of the Self-Assessment Questionnaire can then be applied to the five-level Maturity Scale in the Guide.
