| ABSTRACT |
|
The noise has auditory effects such as hearing loss and tinnitus, and non-auditory physiological effects such as hypertension and ischemic
heart disease. Also, the noise influences daily life psychosocially and behaviorally. In this paper, we described the situation of noise exposure
and noise-induced hearing loss in South Korea industry, and investigated the health effects of noise. In addition, to reduce noise exposure
in the workplace, we examined the environmental noise measurement, exposure limits, special medical examination for the early
diagnosis of noise-induced hearing loss, and systematic programs for hearing conservation. |
