All phones that are sold in the United States must comply with FCC safety guidelines that limit RF exposure. FCC relies on FDA and other health agencies for safety questions about wireless phones. 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 wireless exposures that people get from these base stations are typically thousands of times lower than those they get from wireless phones. Base stations are thus not the subject of the safety questions discussed in this document. Health and Safety Information 135

Health and Safety Information

FDA belongs to a interagency working group of the
federal agencies that have responsibility for different
aspects of RF safety to ensure coordinated efforts at the
federal level. The following agencies belong to this
working group:
• National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health
• Environmental Protection Agency
• Federal Communications Committee
• Occupational Safety and Health Administration
The National Institutes of Health participates in some
interagency working group activities, as well.
FDA shares regulatory responsibilities about wireless
phones with the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC). All phones that are sold in the United States must
comply with FCC safety guidelines that limit RF
exposure. FCC relies on FDA and other health agencies
for safety questions about wireless phones.
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 wireless exposures that people get from
these base stations are typically thousands of times lower
than those they get from wireless phones. Base stations
are thus not the subject of the safety questions discussed
in this document.
