This document summarizes the results of a noise area monitoring survey conducted at a factory. The objectives were to comply with noise exposure regulations and identify actions to reduce noise levels. Noise measurements were taken around machinery, particularly a popeye machine, using a sound level meter. Measurement locations ranged from 1 to 3 meters from the noise source. The results found that noise levels at 1 meter exceeded regulatory limits, recording an average of 97.5 dB. Noise levels dropped further from the source but still exceeded limits at 2 meters. Actions will be taken to reduce noise exposure based on these findings.

STRESS

 Lower frequency of work for high frequency manual handling tasks

The workers engaged in highly repetitive and physical-demanding tasks would


definitely lead to physical fatigue. By lowering the frequency spent on carrying
heavy load, this would actually reduce the number of work related injuries.
Therefore, general standard for the amount of load and time for a worker to work
on. This standard should take into consideration, the workers’ age, physical
health, abilities and current medical condition.

MACHINE
A machine (or mechanical device) is a mechanical structure that uses power to
apply forces and control movement to perform an intended action. ... They can also
include computers and sensors that monitor performance and plan movement, often
called mechanical systems.
machine, arrangement of moving and stationary mechanical parts used to perform
some useful work or to provide transportation. From a historical perspective, many of
the first machines were the result of human efforts to improve war-making
capabilities; the term engineer at one time had an exclusively military connotation.
by means of a machine an applied force is increased, its direction is changed, or one
form of motion or energy is changed into another form. thus defined, such simple
devices as the lever, the pulley, the inclined plane, the screw, and the wheel and
axle are machines. they are called simple machines; more complicated machines
are merely combinations of them.
Complex machines are designated, as a rule, by the operations they perform; the
complicated devices used for sawing, planing, and turning, for example, are known
as sawing machines, planing machines, and turning machines respectively and as
machine tools collectively. Machines used to transform other forms of energy (as
heat) into mechanical energy are known as engines, i.e. the steam engine or the
internal-combustion engine. The electric motor transforms electrical energy into
mechanical energy. Its operation is the reverse of that of the electric generator,
which transforms the energy of falling water or steam into electrical energy.

NOISE AREA MONITORING


Introduction
Noise Monitoring is one of requirement of Department of occupational safety and
health (Dosh) under the Factory and Machinery (Noise Exposure regulation) 1989.
Positive noise exposure monitoring must be conducted at every facilities involving
exposure to excessive noise level in the workplace. Noise survey is conducted in
areas where noise exposure is likely to be hazardous. Noise level refers to the level
of sound. A noise survey involves measuring noise level at selected locations
throughout an entire plant or sections to identify noisy areas. This is usually done
with a sound level meter (SLM). In this study we choose to measure the popeye
machine in Blok B. This machine was choose due to past monitoring that shows the
highest readings record. Figure 1.0 show the layout noise monitoring and popeye
machine located in this survey.

Objectives
a) This noise exposure monitoring survey was carried out to comply with
Regulation 10 of Factories and Machinery (Noise Exposure) Regulations,
1989.

b) Action will be taken based on the result of this noise monitoring in order to
comply with the provisions of the Factories and Machinery (Noise Exposure)
Regulations, 1989.
Methodology and Equipment

In this survey noise level have been measure by a sound level meter (Sound
levelMeter, Model: SL-4011). The SLM consists of a microphone, electronic circuits
and a readout display. The microphone detects the small air pressure variations
associated with sound and changes them into electrical signals. These signals are
then processed by the electronic circuitry of the instrument. The readout displays the
sound level in decibels. The SLM takes the sound pressure level at one instant in a
particular location. To take measurements, the SLM is held at arm's length at
the ear height for those exposed to the noise. With most SLMs it does not matter
exactly how the microphone is pointed at the noise source. The instrument's
instruction manual explains how to hold the microphone. The SLM must be
calibrated before and after each use. The manual also gives the calibration
procedure. With most SLMs, the readings can be taken on either SLOW or FAST
response. The response rate is the time period over which the instrument averages
the sound level before displaying it on the readout. Workplace noise level
measurements should be taken on SLOW response. A Type 2 SLM is sufficiently
accurate for industrial field evaluations. The more accurate and much more
expensive Type 1 SLMs are primarily used in engineering, laboratory and research
work. Any SLM that is less accurate than a Type 2 should not be used for workplace
noise measurement. An A-weighting filter is generally built into all SLMs and can be
switched ON or OFF. Some Type 2 SLMs provide measurements only in dB(A),
meaning that the A-weighting filter is ON permanently (see the OSH Answers on
Noise - Basic Information for more about A-weighted decibels dB(A)). A standard
SLM takes only instantaneous noise measurements. This is sufficient in workplaces
with continuous noise levels. But in workplaces with impulse, intermittent or variable
noise levels, the SLM makes it difficult to determine a person's average
exposure to noise over a work shift. One solution in such workplaces is a noise
dosimeter.

Noise survey is conducted in areas where noise exposure is likely to be hazardous.


Noise level refers to the level of sound. A noise survey involves measuring noise
level at selected locations throughout an entire plant or sections to identify noisy
areas. This is usually done with a sound level meter (SLM). A reasonably accurate
sketch showing the locations of workers and noisy machines is drawn. Noise level
measurements are taken at a suitable number of positions around the area and are
marked on the sketch. The more measurements taken, the more accurate the survey
is. A noise map can be produced by drawing lines on the sketch between points of
equal sound level. In this survey we have decided to take 12 position to take the
reading range 1 meter to 3 meter from noise source.

Result surveillance
Table 1.0 shows the result of this monitoring. Check point 1 meter from source
average reading are 97.5 dB. Check point 2 meter from source average are 94.68
dB and check point 3, 90.02dB was recorded. Check point 1 shows the highest
reading where place of the worker running the machine. This show that the result
has exceeded the regulation requirement (Refer to the Factory and Machinery
(Noise Exposure regulation) 1989 that is maximum 90 dB in 8 working hour))
