1. SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Doses of ionizing radiation to workers in the nuclear field are of particular concern
at this time for two reasons: 1) both the uranium and nuclear power sectors are in
periods of expansion, leading to a larger exposed population of workers; and, 2)
there is a great deal of recent evidence in the international sphere which indicates
large increases in risk estimates for cancer resulting from exposure to radiation.

While evidence for immediately lowering the 'allowable' radiation dose for workers
in the Canadian nuclear industry is overwhelming in Greenpeace 's view, the
Canadian radiation authorities are presently motivated by political and economic
considerations to the detriment of working men and women and also the environment
upon which we depend.
