The present study aims to analyzing the relation between the work-related distress with the exposition to ionizing radiations in the radiology technicians, in the hospital environment. Materials and Methods Our present study has been conducted on a group of 36 sanitary technicians (14 women and 22 man, with an average age of 48±10,1 years) working in the Hospital Radiology Pavilion; 28 of them were less-exposed to radio-active emissions (B Category) and 8 were more exposed to radio-active emissions (A Category). The HSE questionnaire has been administered to all the 36 sanitary technicians. The data analysis and statistical elaboration were conducted using the HSE Tools. After that, the non-parametric Mann-Whitney test was applied to the comparison of the medians of two independent samples. Results The HSE tools questionnaire’s analysis (made on the whole population) made evident some criticalities in the domains of the managerial support and of the professionals’ relationships: in the B Category group (less- exposed to radio-emissions) further criticalities emerged, in the domain of peer-support and in the change domain. The HSE questionnaire analysis, made adopting the Mann-Whitney non-parametric statistical test, significant statistical differences emerged from 2 questions of the 35 sub-administered questions, regarding the mostly radio-exposed workers. Conclusions From the research analysis, the authors deducted the small relevance of the emerged criticalities for the two groups of workers; the researchers also believe that, given the (almost complete) homogeneity of the results emerging from the statistical analysis (done with the Mann Whitney test), the perception of the of the work-related distress risk is irrelevant to the dose of ionizing radio-exposition

Abstract
The present study aims to analyzing the relation between the work-related distress with the exposition to ionizing radiations in the radiology technicians, in the hospital environment. Materials and Methods Our present study has been conducted on a group of 36 sanitary technicians (14 women and 22 man, with an average age of 48±10,1 years) working in the Hospital Radiology Pavilion; 28 of them were less-exposed to radio-active emissions (B Category) and 8 were more exposed to radio-active emissions (A Category). The HSE questionnaire has been administered to all the 36 sanitary technicians. The data analysis and statistical elaboration were conducted using the HSE Tools. After that, the non-parametric Mann-Whitney test was applied to the comparison of the medians of two independent samples. Results The HSE tools questionnaire’s analysis (made on the whole population) made evident some criticalities in the domains of the managerial support and of the professionals’ relationships: in the B Category group (less- exposed to radio-emissions) further criticalities emerged, in the domain of peer-support and in the change domain. The HSE questionnaire analysis, made adopting the Mann-Whitney non-parametric statistical test, significant statistical differences emerged from 2 questions of the 35 sub-administered questions, regarding the mostly radio-exposed workers.
