There is, understandably, a significant legislative control relating to industrial radiography. The majority of the requirements are in the Ionising Radiations Regulations 1999, although there are many other statutory provisions for specific types and uses of ionising radiations.

BCTS undertake radiography work at the client’s premises. This site radiography must be notified to the FANR at least seven days before the work is started, and there is a requirement for BCTS to visit the site to complete a detailed and job specific assessment of how risks associated with the planned radiography will be controlled. These are statutory obligations and we would ask clients to notify BCTS of their requirements at the earliest opportunity to avoid delays in progressing work. We will always work with clients to ensure the site radiography is undertaken with minimum disruption to their normal operations and with a clear concentration on safety and risk control.
