The Work of the Joint Panel on Occupational and Environmental Research for Uranium Production in Canada

Abstract

The Joint Panel, as it is generally known, is a unique organization which provides a common forum for discussions between uranium producers, federal and provincial agencies, labour and others concerned with research related to uranium mining in Canada. The Panel was established in 1977 and has met bi-annually since that time to review current research programs and to discuss areas in which additional research appears to be necessary. The Joint Panel Annual Report has proved to be a valuable and keenly sought after reference document.
