"I am voting for the proposal to again extend the transposition deadline for the 2004 directive on minimum health and safety requirements regarding the exposure of workers to the risks arising from physical agents (electromagnetic fields). The first extension was justified by concerns that the ceilings for exposure to electromagnetic fields laid down in the directive could disproportionately limit the use and development of medical magnetic resonance applications, which play a key role in diagnosing and treating a range of illnesses.
Following in-depth analysis, the technical complexity of the issue prevents an agreement from being reached that ensures a high level of protection for workers’ health and safety, without disproportionately limiting the pursuit and development of medical activities. This means that delaying for a further two years is the only way of avoiding a situation of legal uncertainty and negative legal consequences for the Member States after April 2012, which was the deadline for transposing the directive. This should therefore buy enough time for the negotiations to reach an agreement."@en1
