The aim of the article is to analyze the impact of electromagnetic radiation of aviation electronic support systems on environmental segments and a human organism. We were looking for effects of electromagnetic radiation on inhabitants and environment in the vicinity of airport radars. We accomplished measuring and found out the level of radiation harmfulness of electromagnetic radiation sources. In the conclusion we suggest to eliminate the negative impact of electromagnetic radiation on the human organism. At the same time we present the ways how workers, performing their jobs in the vicinity of strong electromagnetic radiation source, can protect themselves in compliance with legislative of the Slovak Republic. We have proposed some possibilities of protection for workers who work close to a strong source of electromagnetic radiation.
