According to the Regulation of the Minister of Manpower and Transmigration Number 13 of 2011 it regulates the threshold and chemical factors.

The type of research used was quantitative with observational analytic methods. Data was obtained from questionnaires and audiometric results. The research design used cross-sectional, a study between measurement and observation variables that were carried out simultaneously. The sampling technique was purposive sampling.

During the working period of ≥ 5 years, there were 10 people (33.3%) who experienced NIHL, and 20 people (66.7%) who did not experience NIHL. During the working period < 5 years, two people (11.1%) experienced NIHL, and 16 people (88.9%) did not experience NIHL (p=0.081).
