Abstract

This paper deals with the problems of hygienic supervising of workplaces with ionizing radiation sources in Bratislava. Most problems consist in present economic transformation of State Corporations. Abolishing of previous State Corporations and arising of new organizations means new field of their activities. It often happens, that previously used ionizing radiation sources, X-ray tubes, or radioactive sources, are not longer to use and it is necessary to remove corresponding workplaces.The big State Corporation with series of subsidiaries in whole Slovakia was divided to many new smaller Joint-stock Corporations. A subsidiary possessed workplace with X-ray tube and sealed radioactive source of medium radioactivity. During a routine hygienic inspection was found, that the original establishment was abolished, all personal dismissed and another organization is going to move at this place. New organization personnel has not known,that the previous workplace was such one with radiation sources. The situation was complicated by the fact, that new management had no connection to previous personnel and had not sufficient information about abolished establishment. The problem of supervising workplaces with ionizing radiation sources is described. (J.K.).
