Is your work phone making you sick? Smartphone Health and Safety tips from the experts

A press release published by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) about the potential dangers of cell phone use has been making headlines around the world. The report found a strong link between mobile phone use and cancer.

In follow up to the IARC press release; the World Health Organization (WHO) has issued a fact sheet on the health effects of cell phones. This fact sheet states: "A large number of studies have been performed over the last two decades to assess whether mobile phones pose a potential health risk. To date, no adverse health effects have been established as being caused by mobile phone use". The IARC classified cell phones in Category 2B, which is "possibly carcinogenic to humans". 

All employers and business owners providing staff with work mobile phones are responsible for educating staff in the safe use of provided work tools, whether it be a jackhammer or a mobile phone. 

We’ve put together some practical safety tips to help you train your staff to stay safe and healthy when using their work smartphones:

Never text while driving because it is illegal and very dangerous

When possible use handsfree, especially while driving

If youre worried about radiation, use a handsfree or text messaging to reduce electromagnetic energy (EME) exposure to the head

Always purchase approved mobile handsets and accessories - knock-offs may be cheaper but they use inferior materials and are not tested for safety

Use your mobile in good coverage areas

Pedestrians using mobiles should remain alert to traffic and other obstacles

Turn off chargers at the powerpoint when not in use

Ignore cyberbullies and do not respond to bullying messages, where possible block them

In an emergency call Triple Zero (000) and provide your location information to the operator. As long as you are within coverage of a mobile network you will be able to call Triple Zero (000), even without credit or a SIM card. 

If you have a smartphone with GPS capability, you can download the Emergency + App (developed by NSW Fire and Rescue) for free from iTunes or the Google Play store - this app uses your smartphone's GPS capabilities to provide you with your location information which you can give to the Triple Zero operator if needed. It also provides advice about when to call Triple Zero or alternative numbers such as the SES or Police Assistance Line.

The WHO fact sheet can be accessed here 

If your business employs professional drivers, such as truck drivers or bus drivers, weve attached the Australian Mobile Telecommunications Association Fact Sheet developed here
