Inthat Convention, Governments wereinvited toprovide information concerning criteria andstandards fortheprotection ofworkers ininterventions after aradiological accident. TheMeeting ofExperts, whichconvened in September 1986,included specific provisions onthelimitation ofradiation exposure (abnormal conditions) intheILOCodeofPractice onRadiation Prevention ofWorkers (Ionizing Radiations).

analysis: The text discusses the International Labour Organization's (ILO) project to assess the occupational safety and health problems related to the decommissioning of nuclear power plants, particularly after the Chernobyl accident. The project involves assessing environmental contamination, individual and collective dose assessments, clinical health effects, and evaluation of protective measures. The ILO's goal is to ensure the protection of workers and the environment. The text also mentions the ILO's contribution to the elimination of the consequences of the Chernobyl accident, including the protection of workers involved in recovery operations.
