Which organization is responsible for setting dose limits in workplace settings?

The National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) is the correct choice because it is specifically tasked with providing recommendations and guidance on radiation protection, including dose limits for occupational exposure to ionizing radiation. The NCRP develops standards based on scientific research and consensus within the field of radiation safety, which are then used by regulatory agencies and organizations to establish guidelines and enforceable dose limits in various workplace settings.

In contrast, while organizations like OSHA focus on overall workplace safety and health regulations, their guidelines may not specifically address the nuances of radiation dose limits. The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) does contribute to the development of norms for safety and health, but it does not have the primary role in setting radiation exposure limits. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulates environmental exposure to radiation and may set limits related to the environment and public safety but does not directly set workplace dose limits like the NCRP does.
