(3) Each licensee or registrant shall furnish to the worker upon termination of employment a written report as specified in (1), above, of the worker’s exposure to radiation received by that worker from operations of the licensee or registrant. Such report shall be furnished within 30 days from the time of termination of employment or within 30 days after the exposure of the individual has been determined by the licensee or registrant, whichever is later. The report shall cover each calendar quarter in which the worker’s activities involved exposure to sources of radiation and shall include the dates and locations of work under the license or registration in which the worker participated. The licensee or registrant shall maintain records that the report was furnished for 3 years.
