In this paper a scientific review is presented, aimed to the identification of occupational scenarios where the exposure to stray electromagnetic fields (EMFs) can exceed the exposure limit values (ELVs) defined in 119 Directive 2013/35/EU. A total number of 56 papers was examined, and some critical exposure scenarios have been selected for further deepening. Among these, a device for transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) was chosen for a first measurement survey. Preliminary results of operators’ exposure assessment are shown.

Abstract

In this paper a scientific review is presented, aimed to the identification of occupational scenarios where the exposure to stray electromagnetic fields (EMFs) can exceed the exposure limit values (ELVs) defined in 119 Directive 2013/35/EU. A total number of 56 papers was examined, and some critical exposure scenarios have been selected for further deepening. Among these, a device for transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) was chosen for a first measurement survey. Preliminary results of operators’ exposure assessment are shown.
