Why this matters
The Regulations create legal obligations many employers overlook
Legal duty to assess
Employers must measure and assess employee exposure to artificial UV radiation. This isn’t optional guidance; it’s a statutory obligation.
Exposure limits are complex
Separate limits apply for skin and eyes, and accurately assessing exposure against them requires calibrated measurement equipment and specialist expertise.
Worker training is mandatory
Employees exposed to UV must receive hazard awareness training. Many organisations don’t realise this is a specific legal requirement, not just good practice.
End-to-end UV compliance support
Our UV safety and compliance package includes everything you need to improve in house knowledge around UV, process specific exposure data and mandatory training for workers

Statutory exposure limits
Do you know your Exposure Limit Values?
The AOR Regulations set two separate Exposure Limit Values for UV radiation. Exceeding them is a breach of health and safety law — yet many organisations in aerospace, printing, electronics, laboratory, and industrial settings are unknowingly non-compliant.
Our measurement service gives you certainty — not guesswork.
