Radon Risk Assessment FAQs

Upon receiving a Lucion radon risk assessment report, it is important to carefully review the findings and recommendations to determine the appropriate course of action. Depending on the assessment results, you may need to:

  • Implement recommended radon mitigation measures to reduce exposure levels and ensure compliance with regulations
  • Conduct further radon testing or monitoring to validate the effectiveness of mitigation measures or to assess long-term exposure trends
  • Develop and implement a radon risk management plan that includes regular monitoring, maintenance of mitigation systems, and communication with building occupants
  • Provide radon awareness training and education for employees and building users to promote risk understanding and engagement in risk reduction efforts
  • Consult with our radiation protection experts to discuss the assessment findings, clarify any questions, and seek guidance on implementing the recommended risk management strategies By taking proactive steps based on the radon risk assessment report, you can effectively manage radon risks in your property, ensure regulatory compliance, and protect the health and well-being of your building occupants.

Radon risk assessments are a key component of complying with regulations such as the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 and the Ionising Radiations Regulations 2017 (IRR17). By identifying radon hazards, evaluating exposure levels, and assessing compliance with workplace action levels, radon risk assessments provide the necessary information to demonstrate that you have taken appropriate steps to manage radon risks in your property.

The assessment findings and recommendations also inform the development of effective radon control measures and risk management strategies, further ensuring regulatory compliance and the safety of building occupants.

Lucion’s radon risk assessment reports provide detailed insights and actionable recommendations to help you understand and address radon risks in your property.

Our reports typically include: 

  • A summary of the assessment methodology and scope 
  • Detailed findings on radon hazards, exposure levels, and potential risk factors 
  • An evaluation of compliance with relevant regulations, such as IRR17 
  • Characterisation of radon risks and their potential health implications 
  • Recommendations for risk mitigation, management, and monitoring strategies 
  • Guidance on best practices for radon risk communication and employee engagement 
  • References to relevant regulations, standards, and industry guidance 

Our radon risk assessments consider a wide range of factors to provide a comprehensive evaluation of radon exposure in your property. These factors include:

  • The property’s location and geological characteristics that influence radon potential
  • The building’s construction type, materials, and condition, including potential radon entry points
  • Occupancy patterns and building use, which can impact radon exposure durations and levels
  • Results of previous radon testing or monitoring, if available
  • Ventilation and indoor air quality factors that can affect radon accumulation
  • Compliance with relevant regulations and industry best practices for radon risk management

Radon risk assessments should be conducted in several situations, including:

  • When a property is located in a radon-affected area, as identified by Public Health England’s radon potential maps
  • When a property has below-ground workplaces or living spaces, such as basements or cellars
  • When radon testing or monitoring indicates elevated radon levels that exceed the workplace action level specified in IRR17
  • When significant changes are made to a building’s structure, layout, or ventilation systems that could impact radon entry or accumulation
  • Periodically, as part of ongoing radon risk management and due diligence

A radon risk assessment is a systematic evaluation of a property’s potential for radon exposure, taking into account factors such as the building’s location, construction, and occupancy patterns.

The assessment identifies radon hazards, evaluates exposure levels, and determines compliance with relevant regulations, such as the Ionising Radiations Regulations 2017 (IRR17).

Radon risk assessments are important because they help property owners and managers understand and address the potential health risks associated with radon exposure, ensuring the safety of building occupants and demonstrating compliance with legal obligations.
