Abstract

This study investigates the impact of industrial noise on hearing loss among workers in industrial enterprises. A total of 100 employees, aged between 20 and 60 years and from various professional backgrounds, were examined. The results revealed that over 60% of the participants experienced some degree of hearing loss, which was categorized into mild (26-40 dB), moderate (41-55 dB), moderate-severe (5670 dB), severe (71-90 dB), and profound (91 dB and above). The study identified a statistically significant correlation between workplace noise levels and hearing loss, with higher noise levels leading to greater hearing impairment.
