Health and Safety Information 4
Do cell phones pose a health
hazard?
Many people are concerned that cell
phone radiation will cause cancer or
other serious health hazards. The weight
of scientific evidence has not linked cell
phones with any health problems.
Cell phones emit low levels of Radio
Frequency (RF) energy. Over the past 15
years, scientists have conducted
hundreds of studies looking at the
biological effects of the radio frequency
energy emitted by cell phones. While
some researchers have reported
biological changes associated with RF
energy, these studies have failed to be
replicated. The majority of studies
published have failed to show an
association between exposure to radio
frequency from a cell phone and health
problems.
The low levels of RF cell phones emit
while in use are in the microwave
frequency range. They also emit RF at
substantially reduced time intervals
when in the stand-by mode. Whereas
high levels of RF can produce health
effects (by heating tissue), exposure to
