THE SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM OF DISPOSAL OF USED TIRES, TAKING INTO ACCOUNT LABOR SAFETY IN A SMALL MOTOR TRANSPORT ENTERPRISE
When organizing a site for the processing of used tires at a motor transport enterprise, a wide range of harmful and hazardous production factors leads to increased noise levels. The source of his education is a disintegrator. It was established that at the studied workplace the equivalent sound level is 88 dBA with a norm of not more than 80 dBA (for the 2nd class). Not only the operator, but also workers performing their labor functions nearby are exposed to noise in the study area. The solution to the problem of reducing noise exposure is associated with a preliminary calculation of acoustic screens, determining the necessary area of sound-absorbing material, fasteners, etc. The performed studies show the need to install 7 screens with a total area of 20 m<sup>2</sup> to satisfactorily reduce the sound level to the values regulated by sanitary and hygienic requirements. A decrease in the prevailing factor will entail a general decrease in the class of working conditions by hazard and hazard of the operator by one degree.
