Study on noise monitoring at plant area / Rosydi Muin

Noise is a common physical stress found in the working environment. Any forms of work will usually involve physical activities and the use of tools, equipment or machinery. Noise is inherently produced when these activities or machinery cause mechanical vibrations in the media. Noise or unwanted sou...
