Radon Gas Induction

Overview

Just because you can’t see something, that doesn’t mean it isn’t lurking there. Chances are you’ve heard of asbestos, carbon monoxide, and other workplace hazards you can’t always see. But what about radon? That naturally occurring, invisible gas that lives underground and accumulates inside buildings.

Radon is radioactive, and long-term exposure to high levels can have serious health consequences. That’s why workplace legislation requires all employers to carry out a radon risk assessment. To keep your work buildings safe, you need to know how to bust down radon levels and prevent future build-ups.

By the end of this course, you'll be able to:

• Identify the dangers of radon and ensure everyone understands the importance of correct testing and risk assessment
• Recall the questions that must be asked to complete a radon risk assessment, to maintain compliance with your regulatory obligations
• Suggest effective actions to reduce radon levels to improve safety and reduce the risk of future radon build-up where you work
