Jabatan Tenaga Atom

Jabatan Tenaga Atom plays a crucial role in regulating and overseeing atomic energy activities in Malaysia. As the nation continues to develop its capabilities in nuclear technology, the department ensures that all activities comply with safety standards and legal requirements. By focusing on radiation protection, licensing, and waste management, it safeguards both the public and the environment from potential risks associated with atomic energy.

One of its primary responsibilities is to enforce regulations related to the safe use of radioactive materials. Whether in medical, industrial, or research applications, proper handling of these materials remains essential. Additionally, Jabatan Tenaga Atom works closely with various industries to promote best practices in radiation safety. Through continuous monitoring and strict enforcement, it minimizes risks and upholds public confidence in nuclear-related activities.

Beyond enforcement, the department actively engages in public education and awareness programs. By conducting training sessions, seminars, and outreach initiatives, it educates professionals and the public on radiation safety and regulatory compliance. Moreover, collaboration with international organizations enhances Malaysia’s expertise in nuclear technology while aligning national policies with global standards.

Innovation remains a key focus as the department explores advanced solutions for radioactive waste disposal and nuclear security. By integrating cutting-edge technology, it improves efficiency and strengthens protective measures. Furthermore, ongoing research and development ensure that Malaysia remains at the forefront of safe nuclear applications.

With a firm commitment to safety, compliance, and innovation, the department continues to shape the responsible use of atomic energy in Malaysia. Its efforts contribute to sustainable progress while maintaining the highest standards of radiation protection.
