ABSTRACT Until now, hypertension is still a global health problem because it is a silent killer disease. Health workers are figures who have an important role in providing examples of healthy living behavior but are often neglected in health checks, therefore research is needed in South Lampung to find out what risk factors are related to hypertension in health workers in South Lampung. This study aims to analyze factors related to the incidence of hypertension among health workers in South Lampung. This type of research uses observational analytics with a cross-sectional approach. Based on the results of the study, the frequency distribution of the prevalence of respondents based on female gender was 113 people (92.6%), most respondents were in the adult category (26-45 years), based on the results of blood pressure measurements, there were 66 people (54.1%) who did not experience hypertension, did not smoke as many as 117 people (95.9%), lacked fruit consumption as many as 119 people (97.5%), lacked vegetable consumption as many as 102 people (83.6%) and sufficient physical activity as many as 104 people (83.6%). There was no significant relationship between smoking, fruit consumption, vegetable consumption, physical activity, gender, age with the incidence of hypertension. There was no most dominant factor in the incidence of hypertension in health workers in South Lampung, but the variables smoking, physical activity, age and gender were confounding variables.
