Introduction
Noise pollution is reported to affect the general concentration levels of the employees which in turn develop into chronic ailment in most cases. In such circumstances the company is liable to compensate the employees as per the labor acts thus would generate a huge loss in the context of finance apart from man hour’s losses. To avoid all these circumstances it would be better to concentrate into the investments in pollution prevention factors where there are enough subsidies and assistance available making the burden of installation of pollution prevention devices less taxing. (White, 116) At present, there is a substantial amount of noise pollution in Lagos, Nigeria.
Aim
The aim of the study would be to understand and evaluate the amount of noise pollution in Lagos, Nigeria and its affects on public health.
Objectives
The objectives of the study would include:
- To understand the nature of noise pollution
- To formulate preventive measures against noise pollution.
Literature Review
Several studies have shown that the impact of noise pollution could be fatal and this could be more serious for a developing country like Nigeria. The indicators of state exhibit the present form of our environment which may have been degraded by the pressure, like lead concentration in urbanized areas, noise pollution and mean temperature of the world. Impact define the eventual effects that are caused by the changes in state, like health problems due to lead, mortality rates that have been increased by heart attacks or death due to starvation caused by losses in crops due to climatic changes. These impacts cause the society to respond demonstrating their efforts in order to solve the various problems, like the maximum noise allowed at 60-90 decibels. (Wolf, 65-66) Thus, it would logical to study the matter with great extent. The literature included in the study would be from peer reviewed journals published within the last half decade to understand the situation with comparatively current data.
Methodology
Qualitative research is almost always stated as a process which considers interpretative standards along with the various actions of theoretical assumptions. This definition can be based on its sustainable nature which highly depends on the experience of an individual with respect to communication. We can also consider the fact that the entire definition considers the fact that social formulations are responsible for the creation of reality. Further, it is also important to declare that qualitative research basically targets the social context so that we are able to describe interpret and even decode the fundamental importance of such a phenomenon. Such a process is completely functional within the constraints of the interpretative standards which lessen its illusions by sharing subjectivity through conforming to the intricacy, genuineness and contextualization of such a study. Thus, this method would be used.
For a statistical method to fulfill its requirements it should properly interview the entire study at a particular location that is properly selected. The entire process should be closely observed to see to it that the specific variables are contained by the testable subjects. The existence of these variables is particularly important as they help in the evaluation of the fundamental data during the later stages of the investigation. Here adjustments may be made based on observations to the calculated data. These fundamental variables should be taken into account since they are extremely important and pertains to an individual’s religious values, ethnicity and positive support. (Arthur, 225-226).
