L. P. Lestaevel et al.: Radioprotection 2026, 61( 2), 156 – 165 161 Fig. 3. Number of monitored workers, number of exposed workers among them( doses above the recording threshold of 0.1 mSv) and average annual dose on exposed workers, for each activity field in France.
These results show that the number of exceeding cases between 2015 and 2023 fluctuates from year to year( between 1 and 10)( Fig. 5). It is important to notice that less than 50 % of these excesses are confirmed by occupational medicine.
The number of cases of dose exceeding the limits is the largest in the medical, dental and veterinary fields, where the number of monitored workers is also the largest. The number of cases in this field fluctuates through the 2015 – 2023 period,
