European Union's EMF Directive

The European Union's EMF Directive sets standards to limit exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMF) from devices like mobile phones, Wi-Fi, and power lines. Its goal is to protect public health by ensuring that electromagnetic energy levels stay within safe limits. The directive requires member countries to assess, control, and monitor EMF sources, implement safety measures, and inform the public. It also promotes ongoing research and updates to ensure that exposure remains within scientifically established safety margins. Overall, it’s a regulatory framework aimed at balancing technological growth with health protection.
