Abstract

To quantify solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR) exposure of a certain occupational group involved in typical outdoor work in Austria, a study was conducted using UVR-sensitive polysulphone (PS) film badges and electronic UV dosimeters. The study found that the investigated workers were exposed to high levels of UVR, in most cases without adequate sun protection.
