Abstract

The paper gives an idea of attaching the risk of electromagnetic field exposure in the general population and employees with potential health hazards that are related to the different sensitivity of the human body. The difference between the two categories of people, is that in the first case, the intersection with the devices which generating electromagnetic field is optional both in duration, number or distance, and in the second case this option is canceled due to duties of services that give the obligation of employees to stationed in areas with such types of devices. Even if there are thresholds exposure limit values for electric and magnetic field quantities considered hazardous to health, referred to in legal settlements can not say with certainty that human sensitivity and is given the same thresholds for different age and sex categories. These fit rather with probability theory. Therefore the work is appreciated and that the risk to health or human behaviors generated by electromagnetic field exposure related to probability theory and treatment of this risk is therefore using a probabilistic model.
