As a big pollution factor, noise influences the human health and its life quality in many countries occupied intensively with industrialization and urbanization more than ever. Most people have to live in noisy environments at different stages of their
life. However, the workers in different noisy industrial plants are the most affected group of people. It is accepted in the whole world that the direct or indirect effects of noise are of various kinds and we are seriously affected physiologically and psychologically. In some situations, noise causes complaints among the workers and it decreases their working performance in the working area. This study aims at the examination of the workers� evaluations related to noise exposure, who are working in different noisy environments from the point of view of noise levels and noise characteristics. For subjective and objective evaluations also, noise measurements in various industrial plants with different noise levels have been made and a survey through the workers has been taken. Data from the measurements and the survey study are evaluated together for researching the relations between the workers� evaluations related to noise and the measured noise levels. Using the same data, the relations between the education status of the workers, their working periods in noisy environments and workers� evaluations related to noise exposure are investigated. Moreover, in order to evaluate the workers� situations related to regulations, an examination of the Noise Regulation has been made.

G�r�lt�, sanayile�me ve kentle�menin yo�un olarak ya�and�� pek �ok �lkede insan sa�l��n� ve ya�am kalitesini giderek daha fazla etkileyen �nemli bir �evre sorunu olma �zelli�i ta��maktad�r. �nsanlar, ya�am�n de�i�ik alanlar�nda g�r�lt�l� ortamlarda bulunmaktad�r. Bununla birlikte g�r�lt�den en �ok etkilenen kesimi, y�ksek d�zeyde g�r�lt�lerin ortaya ��kt�� sanayi kurulu�lar�nda �al��anlar olu�turmaktad�r. G�r�lt�n�n, insan �zerindeki etkilerinin dolayl� � dolays�z �ok �e�itli oldu�u; insan sa�l��n� fizyolojik ve psikolojik y�nlerden olumsuz etkiledi�i t�m d�nyada kabul edilmektedir. G�r�lt�n�n kimi durumlarda, �al��an ki�ilerin yapt�klar� i�ten yak�nmalar�na neden olmas�, �al��ma performanslar�n� olumsuz y�nde etkilemesi ve buna ba�l� olarak i� g�c� kayb�na neden olmas� konunun bir di�er �nemli yan�n� ortaya koymaktad�r. Sanayi kurulu�lar�nda nitelik ve nicelik olarak birbirinden farkl� g�r�lt�l� ortamlarda �al��an ki�ilerin g�r�lt�den etkilenme durumlar�n� incelemeyi ama�layan bu �al��ma kapsam�nda, g�r�lt� d�zeyleri de�i�ik nitelikteki sanayi kurulu�lar�nda nesnel ve �znel de�erlendirmeler i�in, yerinde g�r�lt� �l��mleri ve anket �al��mas� yap�lm��t�r. �l��m sonu�lar� ve anket �al��mas�ndan elde edilen veriler de�erlendirilerek, g�r�lt� d�zeyleri ile �al��anlar�n g�r�lt�den etkilenme durumlar� aras�ndaki ili�kiler ara�t�r�lm��t�r. Ayn� veriler kullan�larak �al��anlar�n e�itim durumlar� ve �al��ma s�releri ile g�r�lt�den etkilenme durumlar� aras�ndaki ili�kiler incelenmi�tir. Ayr�ca, yasa ve y�netmelikler a��s�ndan �al��anlar�n durumunun de�erlendirilmesi amac�yla G�r�lt� Y�netmeli�i ile ilgili incelemelere yer verilmi�tir.
