Determination of Noise Hazard in Automobile Industry

2014 
This paper help the safety personnel of Automobile Industry to improve as well as maintain their Safety and good Hygienic condition. Total safety management system in an automobile Industry is an integrated effort of the occupier, manager, safety manager, supervisors, and workers. In This paper we discuss about various tool to monitor and measure the Industrial Hygiene and Safety Practices in Automobile Industry. Hearing loss is a major occupational health problem among industrial workers. Repetitive exposure to loud noise increases the risk of hearing loss. An administrative noise control such as job rotation can help to reduce workers daily noise exposures. In a case where noise levels are excessively high, it is often necessary to assign additional workers to the current workforce to alleviate daily noise exposures that individual workers receive. This paper represents three cases to determine a minimum number of workers and their work assignments to attend noisy workstations without noise hazard exposure (that is, daily noise exposure does not exceed 90 dBA). Therefore To improve Safety and maintaining the good Hygienic condition. Such type of monitoring or evaluating techniques helps us to identify the deficiencies in implementation of safety program in industries, with the intention to improve the safety system in future.
