Dosimeter Badge Label information and wear instructions
An accredited dose monitoring program is usually required to demonstrate compliance with state and/
or federal regulations. The thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD) service is designed to provide valuable
dose information for a facility’s personnel monitoring program. To obtain accurate and meaningful data
from our service, it is important to observe the following:
1. The dosimeter should be worn at all times when there is a potential for occupational exposure to
ionizing radiation.
2. Dosimeters not in use should be stored in an area without radiation to prevent exposure that is not
work-related.
3. Remember to return the control dosimeter with the rest of the dosimeters for the same wear period.
The control is used to monitor background radiation and any dose received by the dosimeters in
transit. Any dose recorded by the control is subtracted from the other dosimeters, so the control
should not be used for any other purpose.
4. Dosimeters should be worn at the body location indicated on the dosimeter label and should never
be cut, covered, blocked, or written on. When a protective garment is worn, the dosimeter should be
worn at the collar and outside the protective garment.
5. Care should be taken to use only the dosimeter marked with the proper individual’s identication. If it is
necessary to use an unassigned dosimeter or to reassign a dosimeter, please provide the necessary
information on a “Badge Reassignment Form” and enclose it when you return the dosimeters.
6. Replacement dosimeters for the next monitoring period will be sent before the beginning of the next
monitoring period. Begin wearing the dosimeters on the date printed on the dosimeter label. Return
worn dosimeters from the previous monitoring period, along with their control, in the preaddressed
mailing envelope or box provided. PLEASE REMEMBER TO APPLY APPROPRIATE POSTAGE TO
AVOID SHIPPING DELAYS.
7. To avoid unreturned dosimeter charges, return dosimeters promptly after each wear period.
8. For dosimeters with a detachable clip, please remember to detach the clip strap during dosimter
change out and transfer it to your replacement dosimeter. Return only the dosimeter (less the strap)
worn in the previous monitoring period for processing.
