ABSTRACT   The research was conducted on pesticide spraying workers at PT.LNK Kebun Bukit Lawang, Bahorok Subdistrict, in 2014, in order to evaluate their working condition. The researh was descriptive with cross sectional design. The population was 16 workers, and all of them were used as the samples, using total sampling technique. The data were gathered by using data obtained from the company such as the number of workers and the history of the company. Clinical data of the company were viewed from assessment form in the company clinic, based on the history of the previous illness and smoking.
