Sažetak
The importance of prompt occupational dose reporting rises when dose is received within shorttime interval or when the radiation source suffers any technical failures. New dosimetric concept states that exposure to radiation is to be recognized as a private/or group hazard of each person alone. Actual radiation quality of the source and well defined controlled areas and areas of concern - point (Ort) are to be taken into account. Quality Control measurements of the source and digital dosemeter ALARA OD2 for external dosimetry, are used to establish the real pattern of occupational dose delivered to the workers or/and as the (Ort) environmental measuring station. Dosemeter device, produced by ALARA instruments Ltd., is licenced in the Republic of Croatia. Device has the probe sensitive to background radiation and fast enough to record any change in environmental-background radiation field. If user- worker or dosimeter device enter the radiation field area or radiation source produces unexpected higher radiation output, second mode will separately start to measure this additional dose. This upgrade to legal obligatory external dosimetry is helping and will help and ease defining the professional staff who are actually exposed to ionising radiation of concern and for whom it is necessary to provide legally required or even additional occupational health care programme.
