Which of the following is NOT a possible consequence of exceeding dose limits?

• A. Health effects, fines, disciplinary action
• B. Economic penalties for the facility
• C. License suspension in some cases
• D. Increased job satisfaction

Answer: (D)

Exceeding dose limits triggers safety and regulatory responses because the purpose of these limits is to protect workers' health. When exposures go beyond those limits, there’s a real risk of health effects, and authorities may impose fines or disciplinary actions. The facility itself can face economic penalties, and in serious or repeated violations licenses can be suspended or restricted. Increasing job satisfaction simply isn’t a consequence of exceeding limits; such behavior undermines safety goals and would prompt corrective measures rather than improve morale. So the option about increased job satisfaction does not fit.
