Abstract
A person having ability in radiation protection: an original measure in comparison with the common rights for work safety. In accordance with the regulations, any factory using ionising radiations i s obliged to designate a person having ability in radiation protection and entrusted with specific mis sions regarding safety for professional risks. This represents an original measure in comparison with the common rights for work safety. The decree whose became operative on 2 october 1986, about ten years ago and just before the reform of radiation protection standards, it seems important to store i n memory the genesis and the goals of this prescription and to present the results.

Résumé
L'obligation réglementaire dans tous les établissements où exerce du personnel salarié utilisant des rayonnements ionisants, de désigner une personne compétente en radioprotection dotée de missions ciblées en matière de prévention des risques professionnels constitue une mesure originale par rapport au droit commun de la sécurité du travail. Un peu plus de dix ans après l'entrée en vigueur du décret du 2 octobre 1986 et à l'aube dune réforme des normes de radioprotection, il n'apparaît pas inutile de rappeler la genèse de cette prescription, de ses objectifs et de tenter de dresser un bilan de son application.

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.

If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
