Data collection which is used in this research using personnel radiation monitors.  The  result  of  this  analysis  indicate  that  distribution acceptance of annual dose personal of group interval 0-2 mSv, and acceptance of highest dose 6.09 mSv in the year 1998 from section A. Whole acceptance of dose of external personal at worker from third monitored area, still below the dose  of  limitation  Nuclear  Energy  Regulation  Agency  which  is  recommended  is 50 mSv/year and ICRP 1990 is 20 mSv/year.Key words: personal radiation exposure, radiation worker, radiation
