Decommissioning work at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant Workers impersonate and measure radiation exposure February 20 21:31

It was found that workers of cooperating companies engaged in the decommissioning work at TEPCO's Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station had been taking exposure measurements, which were required to be taken regularly, by impersonating other workers. TEPCO will look into other similar frauds.

According to TEPCO, on the morning of the 19th, a male worker in his thirties in a cooperating company engaged in decommissioning work entered the premises of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant with the license of his subordinate's 20's worker .

It means that they took a measurement that examines the exposure inside the body, which is required by law every three months, to impersonate the person.

The male worker explained that if his subordinate workers had been away from work for a long period of time and had not taken measurements by the three month deadline, the nuclear power plant would not be allowed to work and he could not work, so he impersonated himself That is.

The fraud was apparently offered by the male worker himself, and he acknowledged the fraud that TEPCO was saying "If there were no subordinates, it would be troublesome to prime contractors, etc."

TEPCO does not disclose details such as the name of the cooperating company because the individual is identified.

TEPCO will report the fraud to the Tomioka Labor Standards Inspection Office, and will ask cooperating companies to check for other similar frauds.
