(b)such assessments are recorded.
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1), the employer shall make suitable arrangements with one or more approved dosimetry service for—

(3) For the purposes of paragraph (2)(b), the arrangements that the employer makes with the approved dosimetry service shall include requirements for that service—
(a)to keep the records made and maintained pursuant to the arrangements or a copy thereof until the person to whom the record relates has or would have attained the age of 75 years but in any event for at least 50 years from when they were made;

(d)when required by the employer, to make a record of the information concerning the dose assessment relating to a classified person who ceases to be an employee of the employer, and to send that record to the Executive and a copy thereof to the employer forthwith, and a record so made is referred to in this regulation as a “termination record”;
(e)within 3 months, or such longer period as the Executive may agree, of the end of each calendar year to send to the Executive summaries of all current dose records relating to that year;
(f)when required by the Executive, to provide it with copies of any dose records;
(g)where a dose is estimated pursuant to regulation 22, to make an entry in a dose record and retain the summary of the information used to estimate that dose;

(5) An employer shall—
(a)ensure that each outside worker employed by him is provided with a current individual radiation passbook which shall not be transferable to any other worker and in which shall be entered the particulars set out in Schedule 6; and
(b)make suitable arrangements to ensure that the particulars entered in the radiation passbook are kept up-to-date during the continuance of the employment of the outside worker by that employer.
(6) The employer shall—
(a)at the request of a classified person employed by him (or of a person formerly employed by him as a classified person) and on reasonable notice being given, obtain (where necessary) from the approved dosimetry service and make available to that person—
(i)a copy of the dose summary provided for the purpose of paragraph (3)(b) relating to that person and made within a period of 2 years preceding the request; and
(ii)a copy of the dose record of that person; and
(b)when a classified person ceases to be employed by the employer, take all reasonable steps to provide to that person a copy of his termination record.
