Measurements were taken to assess the dose rate of gamma radiation, total gamma radiation, radon concentration in the water and radon concentration in the indoor air of the thermal establishments. The results indicate that spa workers are exposed to radon levels inside the workplace buildings that are higher than the reference levels set out in the legislation.
