So there is ionizing radiation, and non-ionizing radiation. The worst that non-ionizing radiation can do to you, is burn you. Just like all stoves, an induction stove is non-ionizing radiation. So just like all stoves, it can burn you (if you touch the steel pan). Even the heat from a flame is non-ionizing radiation. Microwave ovens also use non-ionizing radiation -- specifically, they use sub-infrared light -- AKA, radio waves. In your body, there are molecules that due to their shape & constituent ions have a dipole moment (water being the most prevalent example.) The dipole moment causes the molecule to vibrate, i.e. heat up in the presence of an E-M field. This is exactly why sunlight feels warm: it is jostling the dipole-momented molecules in your skin. The only reason microwaves are "scarier" than sunlight is, meat is translucent to radio waves, so microwaves -- despite being less energetic than visible light -- can heat up the inside of you where there are no pain receptors. Then we have ionizing radiation, like UV, X-ray, Gamma-ray, etc. Ain't nobody cooking with those. TL;DR don't worry unless you're standing next to an unshielded kilowatt radio transmitter.
