This paper addresses the awareness of radiographers in radiation protection and other issues related to working culture and practice. Methodology: This study is conducted online by generating a questionnaire using google forms and taking direct interviews. The questions were related to demographic characteristics, academic qualification, radiation protection awareness, work during COVID-19, workflow, stress, and suggestions to improve the quality of work. The questionnaire was sent to radiographers working in government and private setups in the state of Himachal Pradesh. Conclusion: Most radiographers are stress-free and satisfied with work conditions, and positive feedback during COVID-19. But are careless about radiation protection and lack proper infrastructure and devices at the centers. Work division according to their qualification is missing, diploma holders, graduates, and postgraduates all are operating similar modalities. Reproduced
