Even though, the office / indoor environment is considered within the low risk works, radiation risk in office / indoor environment should be evaluated more, because of its dramatic outcomes which it creates in long term. In this study which is entitled as “ Evaluation of Radiation Risk for Safe Working Environments” which presented within that context, by making measurements of non-ionizing radiation (EMA) and ionizing radiation source radon, in areas such as library, laboratory and etc. where the student density is so high in Ege University campus and the results have been compared with the national and international limit values, to see its convenience of working areas have been evaluated in terms of Occupational Health and Safety.<br></p>
