ENSURING OF PROFESSIONAL AND ECOLOGICAL ELECTROMAGNETIC SAFETY: PROBLEMS, STATE AND SOLUTIONS
Abstract and keywords
Abstract (English):
Assurance of workers and population’s electromagnetic safety represents a big relevance in connection with the increasing electromagnetic pollution both of in-plant and natural environment and increase with respect thereto in risk of health loss. Implementation of the principles for protection against electromagnetic fields (EMF) can be not always realized in practice by time, distance, and application of collective and individual means of protection. The question of human being’s protection against EMF has a high relevance especially in connection with potential carcinogenicity of some ranges and modes for EMF generation. Relevance of enhancement of hygienic standards and control methods for EMF, especially taking into account determination of values not only for falling energy, but for the absorbed one, has been demonstrated. The developed modern principle for solution of the problem related to adequate assessment of EMF exposition using a combination of numerical and experimental dosimetry methods, and investigational studies on animals has been separately considered.

1. Введение

Современное состояние проблемы обеспечения электромагнитной безопасности работников и населения обусловливает необходимость совершенствования гигиенического нормирования, методов контроля, принципов и средств защиты человека от электромагнитных полей (ЭМП) различных частотных диапазонов. Обеспечение сохранения здоровья работающих людей и населения осуществляется, в первую очередь, путем гигиенической регламентации ЭМП. Разработаны международные (ICNIRP, CENELEC, Евросоюз) и национальные руководства по электромагнитной безопасности.

2. Критерии гигиенического нормирования ЭМП в России и за рубежом

В России гигиенические нормативы ЭМП разрабатываются на основании комплексных гигиенических, клинико-физиологических, эпидемиологических и экспериментальных исследований. Гигиенические исследования ставят своей целью определение интенсивностных и временных параметров ЭМП в реальных производственных или внепроизводственных условиях. Клинико-физиологические исследования направлены на выявление нарушений состояния здоровья и физиологических функций человека.
