Working environment noise is a major problem in occupational health which is a standard of OSH in various companies, the relationship between excessive noise exposure and hearing loss has been known since ancient times. Various epidemiological studies of noise-induced hearing loss have explored the relationship or risk factors between work, exposure to noise levels and the degree of hearing loss. The purpose of this study was to determine and survey the noise of electronic machines on hearing loss. The research method used is a quantitative, observational method using a cross observational study design.
