Abstract
Objectives: In daily life, noise is persistent, which sparks various health problem not only auditory but also non-auditory. In industrial occupational, the loud sound-induce hearing damage is a significant cause of the social noise exposure. Methods/Statistical Analysis: A brief survey was conducted at the SITE area of the Hyderabad to classify the health issue regarding noise pollution in its vicinity area. Three different types of a questionnaire about labor health issue at clinical and working environment level were used for conducting this research. Findings: The results of the auditory effect of noise play an adverse effect on human as deafness is 27% and auditory fatigue is 22%, which has a maximum health effect. Experimental and survey studies have indicated that the huge number of the population has apparent problems of disturbed sleep, annoyance, less outcomes in the performance of the daily life of industrial persons and an increase of hypertension with another certain cardiovascular disease. Application/Improvements: To avoid harmful effect due to noise pollution, the industries must follow some recommendation and prevention to use PPE, Sound Barrier wall, soundproof building and vibration proof base foundation. Keywords: Auditory Effects, Impact on Health, Industrial Noise, Noise Pollution, Non-Auditory Effects
Highlights
Noise pollution is a major age-old problem for humans, as noise, which is defined as “unwanted sound” causes a temporary disruption in the natural balance leading to some health consequences
The other non-auditory diseases highlighted in Table 1 has lower values & within the controllable ranges and may not harm to that level as a disturbance in sleep and blood pressure effects
The results obtained through questionnaire survey showed that majority of labor are adapted to noise pollution and neglected the safety instruction directed by concerned sections
