RESUMO
Since the accident at Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, individual external doses of residents have been investigated. To accurately analyse survey data, a variety of information, including the activity patterns of many residents, needs to be integrated. However, such large-scale surveys have not yet been conducted and actual individual external doses in Fukushima are unclear. In this study, the individual external doses of approximately 300 Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings employees, who live and work in Fukushima Prefecture outside the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, were measured. The employees carried GPS loggers and personal dosimeters capable of measuring dose in counts per minute. The employees' individual external doses were compared along with their activity patterns. It was found that the annual additional individual external dose estimated based upon actual measurements was 1 mSv or less, and the influence on the individual external dose was also revealed.
