3. Occupational Safety and Health Administration
4. National Telecommunications and Information Administration
The National Institutes of Health participates in some interagency working group activities as well. The FDA shares regulatory
responsibilities for wireless phones with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). All phones that are sold in the United States
must comply with FCC safety guidelines that act to limit RF exposure. The FCC relies on the FDA and other health agencies for safety
questions about wireless phones.
The FCC also regulates the base stations that the wireless phone networks rely upon. While these base stations operate at higher power
than do the wireless phones themselves, the RF exposures that people get from these base stations are typically thousands of times
lower than those they can get from wireless phones. Base stations are thus not the subject of the safety questions discussed in this
document.
2. Do wireless phones pose a health hazard?
Current scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using wireless phones. There is no proof,
however, that wireless phones are absolutely safe. Wireless phones emit low levels of Radio Frequency (RF) energy while operating
microwave ranges (which also emit very low levels of RF when they are in standby mode). While high levels of RF can produce health
effects (by heating tissue), exposure to low-level RF that does not produce heating effects results in no known adverse health effects.
