Work accidents are unwanted events that harm people, cause damage to property, and work processes. In the construction sector, the work accident rate in Indonesia reaches 32%.

This research used a quantitative method with a cross-sectional design. The research population was all construction workers in the Bali International Hospital Sanur project as many as 286 people, with random sampling techniques. The instrument used in data collection was a questionnaire, and data analysis was carried out univariate and bivariate using the Chi-square test.
