Noise exposure in oil mills

Indian Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine, 2008
Noise of machines in various agro-based industries was found to be the major occupational hazard for the workers of industries. The predominant noise sources need to be identified and the causes of high noise need to be studied to undertake the appropriate measures to reduce the noise level in one of the major agro-based industries, oil mills.To ...
