This standard defines the required elements for the development, implementation, and administration of electromagnetic energy (EME) safety programs (SPs), in the frequency range of 0 Hz to 300 GHz. SPs can help mitigate established health and safety risks that might arise from unintended interaction of EME fields, currents, and/or contact voltages with a) people (human exposure), and/or b) electronics, materials, substances, or structures (concomitant EME hazards). This standard uses compliance with appropriate limits, as well as design and operational practices, as the criteria for the required mitigation where the use of EME might result in exceeding the EME exposure limits specified in the SP scope. Compliance limits are not defined in this standard but are expected to be specified in the SP scope based on regulations, other standards, guidelines, or analyses of science/engineering knowledge. This standard provides examples to assist the development of site-specific or environment-specific SPs.
