Radiation Protection Ordinance

The "Ordinance on protection against the harmful effects of ionising radiation" (Radiation Protection Ordinance) is part of radiation protection legislation in Germany. The "First Radiation Protection Ordinance" dates back to 1960. The radiation protection legislation has been amended several times since then to reflect the current state of science.

The Ordinance contains regulations on protection against ionising radiation at home, at work, or when visiting a doctor and sets out the requirements of the Radiation Protection Act in concrete terms.
