Work plan
ICNIRP develops its work plan at the beginning of the term of office by establishing the priorities and tasks. Project Groups are then set up to fulfill the work plan tasks. The work plan 2024-2028 is under preparation.
Chronic UV Exposure
Statement on long-term effects of chronic UV exposure
A Project Group was established to review current evidence for long-term effects of chronic UV exposure and update guidance.

Environment and EMFs
Statement on Environmental EMF Protection
A Project Group was established to draft a Statement on environmental EMF protection on the basis of scientific papers of sufficient quality. And, if possible, to analyse whether the current human exposure guidelines are also sufficiently protective for plants and animals in their natural environment.

Dosimetry of Low Frequency Electromagnetic Fields
LF Dosimetry Review
A Project Group was established to review dosimetry studies, which are related to LF guidelines (typically < 10 MHz). After an exploratory phase, the task is expected to start in 2022.
