This review discusses mandatory health surveillance for EMF-exposed workers under EU Directive 2013/35/EU, which focuses on preventing known direct biophysical and indirect effects. It notes that long-term effects are not covered because evidence for a causal relationship is considered inadequate. The authors report…

This study assessed electromagnetic field exposure near common strong EMF sources in medical and industrial workplaces to estimate standard safety distances (SSD) for workers using active implantable medical devices (AIMD). Using measurements near 127 devices, the longest SSDs were reported near dielectric sealers…

This exposure assessment measured unperturbed electric fields near antennas of 50 portable radiophones used by rescue and uniformed services. Occupational exposure-level field strengths (per Polish OSH safety-zone criteria) occurred tens of centimeters from antennas, and Directive 2013/35/EU action levels were…
