Changes to HSE registration and consent process for work with radiation
HSE has announced changes to the processes associated with work with radiation. From 1st October 2023:
Registration: employers registering work with radiation with HSE will need to submit more information about the extent and purpose of their work.
Consent: Employers who are required to apply for consent for work with radiation (this does not apply to dental x-ray work) will need to submit substantially more information: this will comprise a Safety Assessment which will then be reviewed by an HSE Specialist Inspector before consent is granted. This process will take up to 3 months and there will be a fee.
Your appointed RPA will be able to guide you through this process. Get in touch now to find out how we can help.
