Le système d'information SISERI permettra de centraliser, traiter et restituer aux médecins du travail et personnes compétentes en radioprotection les informations de la dosimétrie individuelle des travailleurs exposés aux rayonnements ionisants.

SISERI (Système d'Information de la Surveillance de l'Exposition aux Rayonnements Ionisants - Ionizing Radiation Exposure Monitoring Information System) is the fundamental management tool for monitoring of workers exposed to ionizing radiation in France.

The Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Institute (IRSN) that operates and manages SISERI on behalf of the Ministry of Labour, has decided to completely rework the system during recent years. The purpose is to provide a tool adapted to the new requirements of the regulations for use by the various players concerned with radiation protection. For companies, the system must offer fast, reliable and confidential access to workers' dosimetry information to qualified experts in radiation protection (PCR) and occupational doctors, in order to optimise radiation protection and for medical monitoring.

Nationally, the IRSN needs similar information for observing and analyzing exposure levels and proposing actions to improve working conditions in the different activity sectors in which workers are exposed to ionizing radiations. These data are also intended for use in epidemiological studies carried out by the IRSN and the different research organizations.

The data flow between the central register (SISERI) and the different dosimetric services are shown on the above diagram. 

Occupational doctors, qualified experts in radiation protection will have access through the web interface to the dosimetric data of workers that they monitor.

The SISERI system has been in a "pilot" phase since June 2004. Several nuclear companies and medical hospitals are todays transmitting and consulting their dosimetric informations according to the protocol defined by IRSN (through a secure internet network).
