What "protective qualities"?

My CBM 1081S and 1084 at least don't have any "protective qualities". The back of their cathode ray tubes isn't even shieded with an metal sheet.

IIRC, it was in the early ninetees when I saw the first CRT monitors that were protected against radiation emission and had the label "TCO 92 compliant" on them:

All the best,
