Introduction
USL7-Siena and IFAC-CNR are cooperating in a project aimed at assessing the exposure to electromagnetic fields in occupational environment. One of the objective of the project is to create and populate a Database, called Physical Agent Portal (PAF), in which the main sources of occupational exposures are represented. This Database is intended to be used as source for risk assessment procedures that Italian employers are obliged to carry on since January the 1st 2009 also for EMF. Pregnant workers were identified as a category to which dedicate particular attention. In particular, in the frame of the project two sources, both of low frequency magnetic field, were considered to which pregnant can be exposed: industrial sewing machines and laptop in office and domestic environment.

It is necessary to use a sampling frequency sufficiently higher than the highest significant component of the input spectrum (this can entail a preliminary acquisition at the maximum
sampling rate and a spectral analysis, when the characteristics of the measured field are not known before the measurement campaign)
