Requesting information from the radiation protection register about personal data on occupational radiation exposure

The Radiation Protection Register is a central federal institution and is operated by the Federal Office for Radiation Protection (BfS). It

• collects data on occupational radiation exposure throughout Germany,
• monitors compliance with limit values,
• monitors the issue of radiation passports and
• issues the radiation protection register number (SSR number).

The Radiation Protection Register thus fulfills a legal task laid down in the Radiation Protection Act.

You can obtain information from the Radiation Protection Register (SSR) if you:
