ASSESSMENT AND ANALYSIS OF NOISE POLLUTION IN THE MANUFACTURING INDUSTRY

Abstract

In the manufacturing industry, noise pollution is a growing threat and increases the risk of hearing loss and health problems for workers. The article aims to calculate the maximum working hours of workers exposed to excessive noise levels based on safe working conditions. Research shows that workers in critical departments are at a higher risk of hearing loss due to prolonged exposure to extreme noise levels. To reduce workplace noise pollution, employers should reduce noise, limit exposure time, implement shift work patterns and provide personal protective equipment, and train workers to protect against hazards. The study highlights the importance of monitoring workplace noise levels and control measures to limit excessive noise levels. Employers, employers and employees must work together to reduce workplace noise pollution, enabling effective strategies and controls to be implemented to improve worker health and productivity.
