Fundamental safety principles

"In establishing Fundamental Safety Principles as an IAEA safety standard, the IAEA has succeeded in formulating for the first time a unified philosophy of nuclear safety and protection against ionizing radiation with a broad international consensus. Fundamental Safety Principles constitutes the conceptual basis for the IAEA's entire safety standards programme and provides the rationale for its wider safety and security related programme. ... states the fundamental safety objective as being to protect people and the environment from harmful effects of ionizing radiation. Ten safety principles are stated and their intent and purpose are briefly explained. The safety objective and the ten safety principles provide the grounds for establishing requirements and measures for the protection of people and the environment against radiation risks, and for the safety of facilities and activities that give rise to radiation risks. These include, in particular, nuclear installations and uses of radiation and radioactive sources for peaceful purposes, the associated transport of radioactive material and the management of radioactive waste."--IAEA summary.
