<p class="wp-block-paragraph" style="font-size:14px">IGNIR offers science-based advice and guidance on the health and environmental effects of man-made non-ionising radiation. &nbsp;Its aim is to protect people and the environment from detrimental exposure to man-made EMF pollution, and comprises three functions:<br>To provide advice about appropriate safety levels for man-made electromagnetic exposure<br>To assess published guidelines on man-made electromagnetic exposure and make its own recommendations as to which are appropriate<br>Provide practical and reliable assessment guidelines for surveyors and building biologists.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph" style="font-size:14px"><br>IGNIR has developed a set of Guidelines for electromagnetic exposure based on the peer-reviewed&nbsp;<a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.degruyter.com/downloadpdf/j/reveh.2016.31.issue-3/reveh-2016-0011/reveh-2016-0011.pdf" target="_blank">EUROPAEM EMF Guidelines 2016</a>.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph" style="font-size:14px"><a href="https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1515/reveh-2016-0011/html">https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1515/reveh-2016-0011/html</a></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph" style="font-size:14px"><br>It has three guideline groupings:<br>Day (D)<br>Night (N)<br>Sensitive (S)</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph" style="font-size:14px">It covers three frequency ranges:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph" style="font-size:14px">Extremely Low Frequency </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph" style="font-size:14px">(ELF)Very Low Frequency</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph" style="font-size:14px"> (VLF)Radiofrequency (RF)</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph" style="font-size:14px">Electromagnetic (EM) hygiene and safety involves minimising exposure levels that can be toxic to the environment and human health. The guidelines set forth by&nbsp;<a href="https://europaem.eu/en/">EUROPAEM</a>&nbsp;(European Academy on Environmental Medicine)&nbsp;were published under open access by the international journal&nbsp;<strong><a href="https://www.degruyter.com/view/j/reveh.2016.31.issue-3/reveh-2016-0011/reveh-2016-0011.xml">Reviews on Environmental Health</a></strong>. Although at present there are no assured safe levels of man-made EM exposure, and studies continue to show harm to living systems at very small exposure values, IGNIR’s guidance aims to help achieve substantial reduction in EM exposure.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph" style="font-size:14px">IGNIR’s Guidelines are aimed to also help protect sensitive groups such as children, the elderly, fetuses, pregnant women, those with co-morbidity, body metal work and people with Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity (EHS).</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph" style="font-size:14px">IGNIR’s latest independent guidelines on EMF exposure are available now to download and use.</p>
