BSOH Studiedag - Journée d'étude
At all workplaces, one has to deal with non-ionizing radiation (NIS). There are different types of NIS: ultraviolet radiation, infrared radiation, laser radiation, electromagnetic fields ... Some radiation is visible, some radiation is not. Non-ionizing radiation can be dangerous. The health effects depend on the nature of the radiation, the radiation energy, the intensity, and the duration of irradiation. This seminar will cover the health effects of different types of NIS as well as examples of how to identify health risks linked to exposure to NIS.
