Reporting of information to the management

The procedures and criteria to be used for reporting individual and workplace monitoring results should be clearly specified by the management or regulatory authority. Information reported should be clearly identifiable and understandable. Normally only final results are reported. 

In accident situations, or for a potential intake that may be close to or above a regulatory limit, interim results should be supplied so that appropriate administrative and other response actions can be instituted. The results should include the result of the measurement, the implied intake value, based on the appropriate biokinetic model, and the implied committed effective dose based upon the corresponding dose coefficient e(g)j. Recommendations for follow-up monitoring and for woikplace restrictions may be made if appropriate. The source of the information reported should be clearly identified, as should a point of contact for aity additional information. Finally, the uncertainty in the measured and computed values should always be reported, accompanied by a statement of which sources of variabiUty have been considered, quantified and propagated in the quoted uncertainty.
