I am a Radiation Protection Tech and I get contracted out by nuclear power plants. I work 5 months on and take 7 months off. I make about $120,000 a year for easy work.
I use to be a massage therapist before nuclear and ran a business that garnered 100 or so members in a year and a half. I was doing great running that with my brother until Covid shut us down.
So I jumped into nuclear and have been working it ever since- I deceived to take the time off that I have build something new and solve a big problem.
I’m currently trying to onboard as many people into nuclear as possible so I can use that money to start my own contracting company for nuclear.
I have an interesting job! If anybody has any questions just ask me and I’ll explain away!

Did you need security clearance?, and is this applicable to Canada?
So your business idea is nuclear recruitment ? I hear from my brothers-in-law who are both nuclear engineers (just retired in the last few months) that there’s a big skill shortage (albeit at their engineering level which isn’t what you are talking about I think). What will your business do if you can’t recruit? Will you also train ?
Hi there, there’s a plant nearby my city (Canada Ontario) if I was to ask you how I would get a job like yours but for this plant would you be able to provide a full instruction / advice
I’ve actually been looking into this job! Could you maybe reference me a starting point and the process of getting into it? When going out on an outage would it be in the middle of nowhere or in the city? What would the starting pay be like?
How much radiation do you get exposed to in a job like this?
Danger money
Where do I sign up?
