Abstract:
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of industrial noise on stress. The sample of the study
is 680 workers working in garment workshops in Beyoglu, Bagcilar and Esenler district of Istanbul.
Demographic information form and Stress Scale were applied to the participants. The noise in the
workplace was measured with the Sanometer device. The data were analyzed using SPSS (Statistical
Package for Social Sciences 25.0) and Cronbach Alpha and Gutman Reliability Analyzes,
Regression, t-test and One-Way Variance Analysis (ANOVA) were used. According to the results,
85 dB noise level does not significantly explain the stress level and 85 dB noise level significantly
explains the stress level of 225%. According to the results of the t-test, men are more exposed to
noise than women. Noise on the stress varies according to the age variable and to serve as a worker
statistically significant |
