This article presents the results of the sanitary-hygienic assessment of industrial noise pressure levels at workplaces in primary cotton processing shops. For the first time, a sanitary-hygienic evaluation of noise pressure levels at workplaces in the primary cotton processing departments of cotton ginning plants in Uzbekistan was carried out based on new experimental data. The study substantiates scientific and practical measures for protecting workers from the harmful effects of noise through the integration of local standards and international experience. Recommendations are provided on engineering and organizational measures aimed at reducing workplace noise pressure levels, as well as on the use of personal protective equipment.
