Experience of 8 years with the EU EMF-Directive 2013/35/EU

The European ElectroMagnetic Fields Forum (EEMFF) is a pan-european network of national occupational safety and health institutions aiming to enhance the implementation of the EMF Directive (2013/35/EU) in the EU member states. To provide occupational safety and health specialists with a platform to discuss their experiences and to exchange best practice, the EEMFF organised a conference in November 2021, hosted by the Federal Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (BAuA, Dortmund, Germany) via webex.

To establish a dialogue between European and international occupational safety and health specialists, the conference offered several keynotes supported by poster presentations and in-depth workshops on the most relevant occupational safety and health topics concerning EMF:

  • Evolving the EMF Directive 2013/35/EU,
  • New and complex Sources, Future of occupational EMF Research,
  • The Role of Standardisation to enhance the Implementation of the EMF-Directive 2013/35/EU,
  • Workers at particular Risk, and
  • Best practice in Exposure Assessment.

This conference summary provides extended abstracts to selected keynotes and poster presentations and gives a short outline of the workshop results. Due to the enormous diversity of topics, it is impossible to summarise the conference's key findings with preserving a meaning to them. Please refer to the Concluding Remarks for a summary.
