In 2013 about 355.000 persons in Germany were monitored with personal dosimeters. 79 % of them worked in the medical sector. The total annual doseMeasure of a radiation effect to be indicated more precisely... of all persons monitored amounted to about 27,6 man-Sievert. The average annual doseMeasure of a radiation effect to be indicated more precisely... of all persons monitored amounted to 0.08 mSv in 2013. For 88 % of the persons in the medical sector and 81% of persons in non-medical sector monitored, the values determined were below the smallest determinable doseMeasure of a radiation effect to be indicated more precisely... (0.05 mSv per year).
