摘要：Background: Excessive heat stress will cause fatigue and drowsiness, reduce stability and increasethe number of work errors. The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between heatstress and work fatigue and increased blood pressure in construction workers at PT PP UrbanDevelopment Project at the University of Nahdlatul Ulama Yogyakarta.Subjects and Method: Research with a cross sectional design was conducted at PT PP UrbanDevelopment Project, Nahdlatul Ulama University, Yogyakarta, from March to April 2022. A sampleof 107 workers was selected by purposive sampling. The dependent variable is work fatigue and an in-crease in blood pressure. The independent variable is heat stress. Heat stress was measured by HeatStress Monitor, work fatigue by reaction timer and increase in blood pressure was measured by digit-al sphygmomanometer. Test analysis using chi-square and the value of Odds Ratio (OR).Results: Construction workers who experience high heat stress have a risk for an increase in bloodpressure of 3.10 times compared to normal heat stress and are statistically significant (OR= 3.10;95% CI= 1.01 to 9.24; p= 0.020), and have a risk of work fatigue 2.73 times compared to normal heatstress and statistically significant (OR= 2.73; 95% CI= 0.97 to 7.52; p= 0.020).Conclusion: There is a relationship between high heat stress and work fatigue and an increase inblood pressure.
