Question 3

An industrial safety consultant is conducting an audit of an aerospace manufacturing facility. The facility utilizes several electromagnetic devices: high-power radar transmitters (microwave/radio band), infrared curing ovens, ultraviolet curing lamps, and non-destructive testing (NDT) X-ray scanners.

Compile a safety brief detailing the biological hazards associated with exposure to these various electromagnetic fields. In your brief, you must:

Compare how non-ionizing and ionizing radiation interact fundamentally with biological matter to cause tissue damage.
Identify the specific physiological hazards associated with exposure to each of the four distinct regions of the electromagnetic spectrum utilized at this facility.
