The authors discuss methods of checking thermoluminescent and radiophotoluminescent dosimeters which are used often in monitoring radiation safety in various areas including nuclear power stations. When the dosimeters are checked in the fields of standard beta-ray sources, it is recommended that the standard absorbed-dose or equivalent-dose measures for beta radiation should be sources of /sup 90/Sr + /sup 90/Y, /sup 204/Tl, and /sup 147/Pm. Various safety guidelines are discussed.
