ABSTRACT
This project work was carried out to access the level of electromagnetic radiation risk awareness from cell phones in selected audience of cell phone users using a Questionnaire. The reduction in the adverse effect of electromagnetic radiation from cell phones is theoretically explained in the research work. The Questionnaires were distributed at seven (7) different diagnostic centres working with radiations and also cell phone users. The level of awareness of the workers was found to be high as more than half of the workers at the various centres were aware cell phone electromagnetic radiation and its risks. The indication by all the workers, of their readiness to know more about cell phone electromagnetic radiation and its risks shows the fact that they need more enlightenment on cell phone radiation generally.
