In the EU, workspaces, plants and built environments' levels of Electromagnetic fields are controlled by the European EMF Directive 2013/35/EU and national Health and Safety at Work regulations. Some environments such as rail and military applications have specific requirements.
In the UK the EMF Directive 2013/35/EU is transposed into UK law by The Control of Electromagnetic Fields at Work Regulations SI 2016 No 588.
Our global network laboratories offers EMF site-surveys using calibrated equipment and trained EMF engineers to assess the levels of EMF for comparison against the legal limits set down by the regulations. Where the test results exceed the allowed limits we work with you to help you mitigate human exposure to be within the legal levels.
Sites particularly at risk include environments where high currents are involved or where there is equipment that uses radio frequency (RF) equipment.
Examples of higher risk locations:
Product-based EMF requirements are legislated for by harmonised standards and Directives. Examples include Electromagnetic Fields testing and assessments required under the European Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU for items including (but not limited to) household appliances (IEC/EN 62233), lighting and luminaires (IEC/EN 62493).
Our global network of laboratories offers EMF testing for compliance with global standards and directives as an integral part of our global market access testing, inspection and certifications services.
High EMF levels in the workplace, as well as those generated by products that can generate high levels, can present hazards to users of pacemakers or implantable cardioverter-defibrillators, as well as to pregnant women, elderly persons and young children.
Identifying the sources of high EMF levels is essential in ensuring a safe workplace.
