Radiation Safety Protection in Saudi Arabia Legislative protection in Saudi Arabia is a complicated subject for discussion, as it is regulated by a variety of agencies in different fields. International organizations and entities actively monitor and review the country’s efforts of adopting the use of nuclear energy, and from the most recent news sources, the process of integrating nuclear facilities into the life of Saudi Arabia is moving in full force. With the backing of rapid industrial development and the individual talents of its people, the country has managed to quickly adopt a variety of practices and regulatory frameworks to use nuclear energy safely ( IAEA Reviews Saudi Arabia’s Nuclear Power Infrastructure Development 2018). King Abdullah City for Atomic and Renewable Energy is an agency that regulates the implementation and construction of nuclear facilities. As reviewed by the INIR part of the IAEA, Saudi Arabia has made significant strides in preparing for the implementation of nuclear facilities ( Nuclear Power in Saudi Arabia ). Another piece of legislation connected with radiation safety and protection is developed by the Saudi Food and Drug Authority. The organization is concerned with maintaining healthcare standards in the medical and food industry. Another piece of regulation that concerns Saudi Arabia is the European Union Council Directive of 2013, which dictates some of the regulatory safety practices that countries affected must comply with. The legislation helps members of the European Union to employ safer practices of working with radiation and protecting their employees. Regulatory Bodies for Radiation Safety Many organizations regulate the safety and regulation of radiation safety, and most actions of governments adhere to the rules set by the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP). The organization works based on well-developed research practices, which allow it to work in collaboration with country-specific agencies in developing unique and effective approaches. The ICRP operates in collaboration with other organizations that control radiation safety, including International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), the International Commission on Radiation Units (ICRU), and the International Radiation Protection Association. (IRPA). These bodies all fall within a variety of requirements that benefit the growth and development of Saudi Arabia. Firstly, the regulatory efforts introduced by these organizations promote the independent growth of Saudi Arabia, as all of their efforts place the authority into the hands of the country, both in terms of regulation and in terms of implementation. Another important aspect of regulations imposed by these organizations is that they are made while taking into account the individual circumstances of each country and adapting to its particular systems and stages of development. There are a variety of standards of safety these organizations introduce, all created in an attempt to facilitate the safe and effective use of nuclear energy. The IAEA sets the standards of working with radiation and nuclear energy as the responsibility of safety, the role of government, leadership, and management for safety, justification of facilities, and optimization of protection. The first of these components states that the responsibility for enduring public safet
