Abstract
Introduction: Noise affects the level of work stress, which can cause disturbance of the work atmosphere and impact on occupational safety and health.
Objective: This study aims to determine the role of noise on occupational stress levels.
Methods: Quantitative research with Cross Sectional research design. Population of all workers in the Production Department of PT X. Sampling using total sampling totalling 94 people. The data collection method was conducted by interview. Work stress variables were measured using an instrument adopted from the OSI-R™ (Occupational Stress Inventory–Revised Edition) by Osipow & Spokane in 1998 and noise measurements in the production room using a list of Sound Level Meter noise measuring instruments.The data was analysed using the Chi-Square Test.
Results: The results obtained almost half of the respondents experienced noise as many as 31 respondents (33%) and most experienced moderate stress levels as many as 68 respondents (72.3%). Statistical test results obtained there is a correlation between noise and work stress level (P-Value = 0.009).
Conclusion: There is a relationship between noise and the level of work stress in Production Employees of PT X. For workers, it is expected that workers comply with using noise Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) such as earmuffs or ear plugs, and implement the policy of using PPE properly.
