ABSTRACT
Differences in results from the new Mayak Worker Dosimetry System (MWDS-2016) vs the previous MWDS-2013 are described. Statistical characteristics are shown for the distribution of accumulated absorbed doses to organs for 8340 workers with bioassay data. Differences in mean values of accumulated doses and their relative standard uncertainties calculated by MWDS-2016 and MWDS-2013 were analysed separately for various types of industrial compounds of plutonium, specifically nitrates, mixtures and oxides. Within the range of accumulated doses >1 mGy, lung doses for nitrates and mixtures decreased by 41 and 15%, respectively, and remained at the same level for oxides. Accumulated liver doses within the range >1 mGy increased for nitrates and mixtures by 13 and 8%, respectively, and decreased for oxides by 7%.
