Convenio sobre la protección contra las radiaciones, 1960 (núm. 115) - Polonia (Ratificación : 1964)

Article 7, paragraph 2, of the Convention. With reference to its previous comments, the Committee notes with satisfaction that pursuant to Order No. 419 of the State Atomic Energy Agency dated 7 July 1995 the minimum age for admission to occupational training, in conditions of exposure to ionizing radiation for which dose limits are provided under section 6.1 of Order No. 124 of 31 March 1988 concerning limit doses of ionizing radiation and indicators determining the risk associated with ionizing radiations, has been raised from 15 to 16 years. The Committee recalls in this connection that it has noted previously with interest that the Order of 21 December 1991 amending the list of jobs prohibited to young persons maintained the prohibition of employment of young persons in conditions of exposure to ionizing radiation, and that while young persons over 16 years of age may be so employed to the extent necessary for their vocational preparation, exposure to radiation had been limited to the level determined for the general public.
