A high workload may cause overstress and injury. This study aimed to determine the relationship of age, duration of work, and temperature with workload. Descriptive quantitative methods were used with a cross sectional design. The sample included 40 respondents. The NASA-TLX questionnaire and thermohydrometer were used to collect the data which were analyzed using the Chi-square test. The findings showed that 55% of the workers had a moderate mental workload, and there was a relationship between age and mental workload (p-value = 0.045), while the duration of work (p = 0.340) and temperature climate (p = 0.602) did not have a relationship with mental workload. The mental workload of workers increased with an increase in age, so the recommendation given is to provide a workload according to the capacity of the worker.</p> <p>Keywords: workload, temperature climate, age, duration of work, worker</p&gt;}, number={2}, journal={KnE Medicine}, author={Setijo Widodo, R. and Suhat, Suhat and Silvi Hidayat, Cinthia and Elvinawaty Mauliku, Novie}, year={2022}, month={Jun.}, pages={127–133} }
