Ensuring the highest standards in safety

Our Safety-first Approach

Every day across our city, we all use mobile phones and devices to make calls, access the Internet and stay connected. Wireless telecommunications like this are examples of well-established technologies that use radio waves, also known as radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RMF/ EMF). 

EMF in the form of 4G and 5G has not been proven to be harmful to human health

Electromagnetic fields are essential for modern telecommunications.  There have been misconceptions about the safety of EMF. It must be made clear that, as reported by the World Health Organisation, there is no evidence of any link between EMF exposure and the radio frequency of telecoms infrastructure, and it being harmful to human health. 

Our national Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has also completed in-depth research and assessments and have concluded that the levels of EMF from telecommunications in Ireland are low and do not pose a risk to the public.  

Further information on RMF and EMF is available below.  For any queries relating to EMF, please feel free to contact the EPA directly or find out more on their website
