| Summary: | WOS: 000315975900011 In this study, results of noise level measurements performed in 4 different mining sites are given. Noise level measurements performed in opencast mining site of Konya Ilgin Lignite Corporation (ILC), in Konya Eyak Mining quarry site and in Aydin Cine Feldspar ore dressing facility have been evaluated together with worker surveys. The noise level measurements performed in Manisa Soma Uyar Mining coal preparation facility have been evaluated in terms of machine-work performance. Thence, it has been pointed out that the increase in noise was due to machine faults. When the measurement results were considered, it is mandatory for the workers to use protective equipment. Workers working under high noise level would be affected physically, physiologically and psychologically. To prevent these harms, they should be encouraged to use earmuffs and plugs.
