Development of a specialized computer application “AQNOISE.EXE 01” on the integrated quality management system specific to noise testing and certification activities

Abstract

Continuous improvement of the occupational safety and health climate in work systems affected by the presence of noise requires, in addition to the assessment of occupational risks arising from exposure to noise, the resolution of issues such as: the development of procedures for noise testing of equipment, as well as the determination and assessment of occupational exposure to this contaminant; development of an equipment certification system in terms of airborne noise emissions; implementing an effective system of training and testing of staff on occupational safety and health issues. The AQNOISE.EXE 01 program is a working tool used for the operational and procedural management of documents related to the integrated quality management system specific to noise testing and certification activities by entering data and information on: applicable legal regulations , both in the field of testing and assessment of the noise conformity equipment; objectives and policies in the field of noise testing and certification; responsibilities and requirements in the field of noise testing and certification; implementing, maintaining and improving the integrated quality system in the field of noise testing and certification; ways of recording data in order to ensure compliance with the applicable noise testing and certification requirements.
