LBA University's General Occupations RF/EMF Safety Training Course Lands Product of the Year Award

GREENVILLE, N.C., June 19, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- A new LBA University, Inc. Radio Frequency (RF) Safety Awareness course has been awarded the 2019 New Product of the Year by Environmental Protection Magazine. LBA University, Inc. (LBAU), the nation's leading safety training company, and a unit of LBA Group, Inc., introduced the new RF Safety Awareness General Occupations online certification course. The demand comes from the increased RF and EMF hazards that may now exist from expanding cellular and 5G systems, industrial or medical facilities.

"This was the second year we conducted this contest in the spring, and environmental companies responded strongly with high-quality, innovative new products," Environmental Protection Magazine Editor Jerry Laws said.

The company designed the awarding winning RF Safety Awareness General Occupations course based on the widespread worker risks for RF/EMF exposure across many general occupation sectors. This includes industrial workers, medical workers, first responders, maintenance personnel, construction workers, HVAC technicians and many other trades where potential RF exposure hazards are growing.

Award submissions were evaluated by a three-judge panel. To be eligible for the 2019 award, products must have been introduced to the market during the past calendar year.

The course educates workers on an awareness of the hazards that exist within diverse environments. The new offering also outlines the steps that may be taken to reduce these known risks and highlights FCC guidelines, OSHA regulations, industry standards, and parameters set forth by various agencies as it relates to RF energy and human exposure. On successful completion of testing, a certificate is issued.
