Files Description: These raw data files were prepared by Epidemiology staff in support of epidemiologic studies at Rocky Flats. They contain information derived from health physics, personnel, vital status, industrial hygiene, work history, demographic, air sampling, and motor vehicle records. Variables in the files include employee social security number, date of birth, exposure data from film badges and thermoluminescent dosimeters, employee names, hire and termination dates, and International Classification of Diseases code numbers.

The files PERSON_EXP and AGENT_DICTIONARY were prepared in support of the Complex Chemicals Study conducted for Rocky Flats. The file ACCUMULATE is an ORACLE database of lifetime accumulated external ionizing radiation dose received prior to employment at Rocky Flats. The ORACLE database EXPOSURES contains correct exposure data and should not be confused with the DATATRIEVE database RF_EXPOSURES_ORID, which contains incorrect information.
