EMF COMP
EMF Directive & Standards Compliance
EMFcomp are the UK’s leading experts in EMF analysis, including assessment for compliance with the EMF Directive 2013/35/EU and associated EMF standards.
In the UK, the EMF Directive 2013/35/EU became law as the Control of Electromagnetic Fields at Work Regulations 2016 (CEMFAW). The duty is the same on both sides of the Channel: every employer must assess workers’ exposure to electromagnetic fields and, where necessary, limit it. Need an EMF assessment of a facility, a survey for a development or an analysis of your equipment? Our award-winning, chartered experts will tell you where you stand and how to comply.

Trusted EMF Compliance Guidance
CEMFAW. The EMF Directive 2013/35/EU. Council Recommendation 1999/519/EC. The ICNIRP guidelines. If you are not sure which applies to you, or how they fit together, you are not alone. We can help. The short version: the Directive and CEMFAW protect workers, the Council Recommendation protects the public, and all of them are built on ICNIRP. We assess compliance with any of them, in the UK and overseas, and cite the relevant IEC and BS EN measurement standards in every report. Then we tell you where the safety zones need to be and give you an action plan that achieves compliance at sensible cost.
Chartered Experts
One switchroom or an entire manufacturing site, we can survey it efficiently and report on it to the highest standard, so you can be certain your facility or project complies with the EMF regulations. We have worked with some of Europe’s largest companies. The outcome is the same for all of them: assurance that every member of the workforce is protected from EMF hazards, whether a “standard” worker or one with a cardiac device or other implant, the people the Regulations call “employees at particular risk”.
Is EMF Compliance Easy?
Not especially. The physics of electromagnetic fields, and the way they interact with the body, is hard going, and the route through the EMF Regulations or EMF Directive is confusing if you do not work with them every day. We do.
Who Can Carry Out This Work?
The EMF Directive expects electromagnetic safety assessments to be carried out by competent persons and kept up to date. EMFcomp Limited has a long record of demonstrating compliance with the EMF Regulations and the EMF Directive, in every sector. We read the legislation so that you do not have to, and translate it into plain English. You receive a detailed report, clear guidance and recommendations specific to your site and equipment.
We also know the Directive from the inside. We co-wrote the European Commission’s ‘Practical Guide to the EMF Directive’, the document written to help employers across Europe comply, and the basis for assessing compliance with the UK’s Control of Electromagnetic Fields at Work Regulations 2016. All of our advice, measurement and modelling rests on published scientific research.
