Radiofrequency Fields

The remarkable growth of RF technology over the last few years has raised public concerns about possible associations between RF energy and adverse health outcomes. Canada, in fact, was one of the first industrialized countries to recognize the need for RF exposure guidelines. Health Canada developed its first RF exposure limit guideline, known as Safety Code 6, in 1979. Since then, Safety Code 6 has been updated several times with the most recent revision in 2015. The exposure limits outlined in Safety Code 6 are set far below the lowest level of RF exposure that could produce potentially harmful effects in humans.

Safety Code 6 is referenced in regulations written under the Canada Labour Code and used as a standard by federal government departments, crown corporations, and other organizations. In addition, Canadian provinces and territories have generally adopted these exposure recommendations.
