전파법상 전자파 방지를 위한 법적 제고 방안

Abstract

The current Radio Waves Act stipulates the protection of the human body from electromagnetic waves, installation of safety facilities for electromagnetic waves, measurement and survey of electromagnetic waves, education and promotion of electromagnetic waves, and sanctions for violations of electromagnetic waves. However, in reality, what we are experiencing as problems are the management policy problem of electromagnetic waves, the problem with the electromagnetic wave standard, the problem with the prevention of electromagnetic waves, the problem with education and promotion of electromagnetic saves, and the problem in securing the effectiveness of electromagnetic waves. First of all, as we have to deal with the reality that the hazard of electromagnetic waves are widespread due to household electrical appliances, we need to come up with policies and systems based on the principle of ‘precaution’ to prevent health risks from electromagnetic waves in the future. In other words, we need a complete set of government policies on electromagnetic waves and stronger cooperation from the public for the interest of the public. In particular, we need to systematically and comprehensively manage the government’s electromagnetic wave management. In addition, as we have insufficient legal regulations such as labelling requirements of electromagnetic shielding in household appliances, we need to strengthen the verification of electromagnetic shielding and compliance with electromagnetic shielding obligations. In addition, since electromagnetic waves generated by household appliances exceed exposure standards and electromagnetic waves from high-voltage transmission lines also exceed exposure standards, stricter administrative measures such as restrictive measures therefor and strengthening the regulations are required. In addition, as there are problems such as lack of citizen awareness and lack of education and public relations on exceeding electromagnetic wave standards such as household appliances and high-voltage transmission lines, we need surveys and researches, and training and public relations to build the foundation for continuous and safe establishment of an electromagnetic wave foundation by the government. In addition, school education and field education on electromagnetic waves are also needed, and it is also necessary to actively promote safe use of household appliances, etc. through mass media. In addition, household appliances, etc. exceed the human body protection standards for electromagnetic waves, and devices that do not conform to the electromagnetic wave prevention standards are being produced and distributed, and furthermore, illegal acts such as arbitrary evaluation of electromagnetic waves and false or insufficient evaluation, and therefore, it is desirable to increase the amount of fine for exceeding the electromagnetic wave standard and violation of the electromagnetic wave grade labelling, and raise the level of imprisonment and fines for violations of electromagnetic wave measurement and survey.
