Public consultation on the SCHEER Preliminary Opinion on potential health effects of exposure to EMF

ESC submits consultation answer to the EU on potential health effects of exposure to electromagnetic fields

Written on . Posted in Have your say, News from ESC.

About this initiative: The SCHEER Committee found that the exposure to low frequency EMF of the general population in Europe remains below the exposure limits recommended in Council Recommendation 1999/519/EC. There is also no convincing evidence for a causal relationship between low frequency EMF exposure within the limits indicated in the Recommendation and self-reported symptoms. However, more research is needed on the interaction mechanism between EMF exposure and human health.

Feedback period: 10 November 2023 – 2 January 2024
