Abstract

Noise and vibration are among the main negative elements of the working environment. The aim of this study was to determine the measurement of the size of their effect on helicopter pilots and crew members. The results were compared with the warning and limit values determined by the existing Directives of the European Commission in the field of noise and vibration. The comparison of the results has led to the conclusion that the measured values are unacceptable in terms of safety and health at work and that the measured values exceed the limits. The measurements have pointed out to a danger of occupational diseases among crew members and to the necessity to take measures to reduce the harmful effects of noise and vibration on helicopter personnel.
