Abstract

Noise is ubiquitous in everyday life and can cause both hearing and non-hearing health effects. Loss of noise induced hearing is still very prevalent in environments occupational diseases and is increasingly caused by frequent exposure over the permissible limits of sound waves.  This article   introduces a review of the scope of the literature on wave simulation noise levels in closed spaces and the effects on occupational health. The methodology is based on four steps, which pose research questions, search for documents, selected papers and obtaining data. Out of a total of 316 database articles reviewed, such as Springer Link, Google Academic, Redalyc, Scopus and Scielo, 40 were finally elected. It was analyzed that the auditory and non-auditory effects by the presence of noise in closed places is increasing, showing that exposure causes discomfort and disturbs sleep, causing daytime sleepiness, which affects people’s performance, as well as increases the occurrence of hypertension, cardiovascular diseases and it could impair
