Helping Canadians Reduce Radon Risk


Protect YOUR Workplace from RADON



Radon is in the ground naturally, and sometimes gets into workplaces through contact with the ground.


Radon is a gas that you can’t see, smell, or taste — but it can be dangerous. It’s the second leading cause of lung cancer in Canada.

4% of Federal Buildings tested were above 200 Bq/m3

CAREX estimates 188,000 Canadians are exposed to elevated radon levels at their workplace.
