RF Awareness
This course provides essential knowledge about RF (Radio Frequency) radiation, a non-ionizing electromagnetic energy. It educates workers near RF-emitting equipment, such as cellular towers and antennas, on recognizing hazards and implementing safety measures. Key topics include:
1- Introduction to RF Radiation: Understanding its nature and sources.
2- Health Effects: Thermal and non-thermal impacts, symptoms, and risks.
3- Exposure and Hazard Identification: Controlled vs. uncontrolled environments and hazard signage.
4- Mitigation and Safety Practices: Safe distances, RF monitors, and PPE use.
5- Case Studies: Real-world scenarios on risk mitigation and compliance.
