उत्तर
(i) The people working with radioactive materials should use mechanical devices such as tongs, clamps, tweezers, etc., to help minimize exposure.
(ii) The people working with radioactive materials should wear special lead lined lab coasts, gloves and safety glasses and remove them when leaving the work area or laboratory.
(iii) All radioactive materials should be stored in specially designed thick lead containers with a very narrow opening so as to stop radiations coming out from other directions.
