Bagian pengantar ini menekankan pentingnya penerapan Basic Safety Standards (BSS) sebagai landasan perlindungan terhadap radiasi pengion dalam berbagai praktik, termasuk radioterapi. Karena sifat BSS yang umum, setiap negara perlu menyesuaikan penerapannya dengan regulasi nasional, namun hal ini sering menimbulkan variasi interpretasi dan inkonsistensi. Untuk itu, dibutuhkan panduan regulasi ya…
Buku Categorization of Radioactive Sources (IAEA-TECDOC-1344, Juli 2003) merupakan publikasi penting dari International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) yang merevisi TECDOC-1191. Dokumen ini menyajikan pedoman internasional mengenai klasifikasi sumber radioaktif berdasarkan tingkat risiko dan potensi dampaknya terhadap keselamatan, keamanan, serta kesehatan manusia dan lingkungan. Selain mengura…
IAEA memiliki fungsi utama untuk menetapkan standar keselamatan dalam penggunaan energi nuklir secara damai guna melindungi kesehatan, kehidupan, dan properti. Standar ini disusun melalui berbagai komite ahli (CSS, NUSSC, RASSC, TRANSSC, WASSC) dengan partisipasi luas dari negara anggota, dan dikaji secara internasional sebelum disahkan. Meskipun tidak bersifat mengikat secara hukum bagi neg…

There are concerns that terrorist or criminal groups could gain access to high activity radioactive sources and use these sources maliciously. The IAEA is working with Member States to increase control, accounting and security of radioactive sources to prevent their malicious use and the associated potential consequences. Based on extensive input from technical and legal experts, this Implement…
This manual has been produced as part of the IAEA’s Action Plan for the Safety of Radiation Sources and Security of Radioactive Material. It is intended to: assist in the recognition and identification of objects thought to be radioactive devices, sources and transport packages; provide instruction on what to do and how to obtain further help; enhance awareness of the existence of radioactive…
This IAEA Nuclear Security Series publication provides nuclear security fundamentals, recommendations, and supporting guidance for Member States to assist them in implementing new nuclear security regimes, or in reviewing and, if necessary, strengthening existing ones. The publication is aimed at national policy makers, legislative bodies, competent authorities, institutions and individuals inv…
The purpose of this publication is to provide guidance to States and competent authorities on how to develop or enhance, implement and maintain a nuclear security regime for facilities dealing with radioactive material and associated activities. This is to be achieved through the establishment or improvement of their capabilities to implement a legislative and regulatory framework to address th…
Since the 1950s, sources of ionizing radiation have been used for medical, industrial and research purposes. There are currently some 160 gamma irradiation facilities and over 600 electron beam facilities in operation throughout virtually all Member states of the IAEA. This guidance i this Safety Series publication is intended for competent authorities responsible for regulating the use of radi…
The objective of this report is to facilitate a recognition of priority management issues which, when not adequately recognized and addressed, can result in problems in operational performance at nuclear power plants. It provides a number of effective practices, reflecting the positive experience of nuclear power companies, that have prevented or corrected problems related to selected managemen…
