Abstract
When radon is taken out of the scientific context in order to be understood by the public, the way the media approaches radon is prone to sensationalising. Communicating risk in a clear and effective manner was never easy and communication of radon risk poses serious challenges because radon is not widely known and specialists need to be more involved in engagement activities and campaigns to inform about radon exposure. This paper presents the results of the continuous radon measurements performed in workplaces for raising awareness among occupationally exposed workers. Radon measurements were made using Airthings monitors for up to 9months of monitoring. Measured data correlated to real-time visualisation of the maximum radon levels provided convincing evidence that led to increased interest for radon exposure among exposed workers, raise awareness and empowered their own understanding of radon exposure.
