Objective: Use of artificial tanning devices that emit UV radiation, such as tanning lamps and tanning beds, has become increasingly popular in the world. A tanning bed is a device emitting ultraviolet radiation used to produce a cosmetic tan. A number of studies have been conducted evaluating the risk of cutaneous malignant melanoma after exposure to sunlamps and/or sunbeds. Although an excess risk of nonmelanoma skin cancers might be predicted from this exposure, little epidemiologic data exist. Material and Methods:In this study the leakage electromagnetic fields around artificial tanning devices were measured in Sun Club Beauty Salon and Solarium in Ankara, Turkey and evaluated in terms of standards.Results: It has been observed that operators exposed to low ELF and RF fields with respect to general public and occupational exposure limits. However, global health experts have moved use of sunbeds and exposure to ultraviolet radiation (including sun exposure) to the highest risk category for causing cancer. Conclusion:They now join agents such as tobacco, asbestos and benzene in being classed as "carcinogenic to humans" whereas before they were classed as "probably carcinogenic". Precautions should therefore be taken to minimise the exposed fields.

Dielectric heaters and sealers present the most common source of occupational exposure to excessive radio frequency (RF) fields. These systems are used industrially to heat or melt dielectric materials. Nowadays, the effects of high frequency electromagnetic (EM) fields on the health have been discussed frequently but there are few health studies done for workers around dielectric heaters and sealers. In this study, the leakage fields around dielectric heaters and sealers (27.12 MHz) were measured in MKE--Mechanical and Chemical Industry Corporation, Gazi Rocket Factory and evaluated in terms of standards. It has been observed that operators exposed to same RF fields with occupational exposure limits. Many workers have health complaints, such as elevated body temperatures in the factory. Safe distances or areas for workers should be recommended in these systems. Protective measures could be implemented to minimize these exposures. Further measurements and occupational exposure studies of RF exposed women and men are needed to demonstrate the levels of exposed Radio Frequency Radiation (RFR). Precautions should therefore be taken either to reduce the leakage fields or minimise the exposed fields.
