RF Safety Training
7he 1996 7eIecommunications Act
Mandates RF Radiation ReguIations
September 1, 2000: the Federal Communications Commissions
(FCC) RF Radiation Exposure Regulations became efective for ALL
communications sites. These regulations point out several problems
that must be solved by each organization in the wireless industry.
Problem
How will you know what you need to
comply to the new regulations?
How will you determine and designate
potential hazards for your employees?
An Occupational/Controlled classifcation
imposes fewer operational restrictions.
How can you get your sites classifed as
Occupational environment?
Do you need to make feld strength
measurements at each site?
Solution
A written RF Radiation (RFR) Safety Program is
all but mandated its also the simplest place to
begin.
Using the new FCC regulations as a guide,
identify the areas and equipment that carry
potential hazards. Once identifed, you must
make measurements to establish the boundaries
of Occupational/Controlled and General
Population/Uncontrolled areas.
In an Occupational environment, informed
workers understand and follow well-defned
safety procedures. Consequently, restricted areas
are smaller. Your sites can be classifed Controlled
when you have developed and implemented a
comprehensive safety program.
Possibly. The FCC only requires measurements for
certain antenna installations but defnitive feld
strength data for each site may be needed to
establish boundaries for employees and to supply
local governments.

RF Safety Training
Problem
What kinds of equipment will you need to make
these measurements?
How will you continue to keep your employees safe
between measurements?
How are you going to protect your employees
from other emitters that could be co-located
at your sites?
Training is a key element of all safety programs.
Where can you get it?
Solution
To measure RFR emissions at todays complex
sites, you will need survey instruments usually
a meter and one or more probes that yield
accurate measurements in multi-signal
environments.
Personal RF monitors (worn) and area monitors
(mounted at the site) alert you to potentially
unsafe situations the moment they occur.
The human body doesnt care who owns the
emitter and neither does the FCC. You must
protect your employees from energy from all
sources at a site. Personal RF monitors are often
the ideal solution.
Go to an expert in RF radiation, one that has
studied the potential hazards and knows how to
manage them.

RF Safety Training
RF Radiation
You cant see it, smell it, hear it, or touch it. Yet the more
we learn about it, the better we are at managing opera-
tions and reducing risks. It is referred to by many names
electromagnetic radiation, non-ionizing radiation, radio fre-
quency radiation (RFR), electromagnetic energy (EME), and
even EMFs (electromagnetic fields).
Recent media interest in very low level sources of non-ion-
izing radiation cellular phones, VDTs, appliances, power
lines has reminded us to focus on the possibility of hazard-
ous conditions in occupational areas.
Tens of thousands of occupational situations involve poten-
tially hazardous exposure to non-ionizing radiation exposure
that could be at, near, or above recognized safety standards.
Industrial uses outside the electronics industry and the mili-
tary continue to grow.
