Protection and safety

Before you start working at Studsvik we need various certificates from you. We require:

• Security screening
• Drug test
• Radiological medical examination (for work in a radiological environment)
• Protection and Safety training
• Radiation Protection in Practice training (for work in a radiological environment)

 

If you have fulfilled all the above requirements, you are entitled to move around independently within Studsvik Tech Park provided you have a valid approved preregistration and a valid ID document. If you do not fulfil one or more of the above requirements, you must have an approved guide with you throughout your visit to the facility. See the table (at foot of page) and the relevant sections below.

The examinations and training are to be repeated at varying intervals. You will receive a reminder by email. These reminders are sent out automatically from an electronic system with the sender address noreply_foranmalan@studsvik.se.

The system sends reminders until the new criterion has been updated in the system, so you may receive reminders even though you have done all you need to.

Security screening (= checking and processing of certificates, background checks, questions etc.) is carried out with the assistance of a security officer for employees and contractors at Studsvik Nuclear AB. This function is staffed on Thursdays during the hours 06.00–18.00.
