Element’s EMF survey and risk assessments protect your employees from Electromagnetic Field exposure, helping you create a safer working environment, and to comply with CEMFAW regulations. Our nationwide network of experienced consultants provide convenient on-site surveys, to identify, evaluate and mitigate your EMF risk – quickly and reliably. 

 

What is an EMF survey? 

An EMF (Electromagnetic Field) Survey is a series of on-site measurements using a portable instrument to assess the levels of EMF employees are exposed to, and ensure exposure is below the Exposure Limit Values (ELVs). It allows for identification, evaluation, and ultimately adequately reduces or controls any risks that may be present. EMFs can be highly dangerous to the employees in your workplace if not adequately controlled. EMF exposure health risks include cell damage, a decline in nervous system function, cancer, and sleep disturbances. It is mandatory to protect your employees from health risks by undertaking an EMF risk assessment under CEMFAW regulations.

Exposure Limits are used to prevent possible harm from the heating of tissue and electrical stimulation of nerves and tissue caused by exposure to EMFs. 
Sensory-effect Exposure Limits are used to prevent effects such as flickering sensation, or a feeling of nausea, vertigo, or a metallic taste caused by static magnetic fields.

Action Levels: 

  • Apply to all workers not at Particular Risk, therefore assessment required against the applicable Action Levels
  • Levels above which particular indirect effects may take place, such as interference with pacemakers
  • A Public Action Level of 40 mT for static magnetic fields is defined to limit interference with active implanted medical devices.
