Weaving, textile workers

The intervention took place within a company in the textile sector and intends to respond to a request made by the Human Resources Department of the company. In fact, during the time the request was made, this Department was concerned about the low rate of use of hearing protection in some of the areas of production and its repercussions for the health of exposed workers. Note, however, that the request for action arose from the area of Human Resources and not from the Company Director. The company was founded about 30 years ago and had about 650 workers. 51 workers participated in the intervention because all of them were exposed to noise levels above 85 dB, which mainly affects the areas of dyeing and weaving.
