The sampling technique used total sampling with a total sample of 53 people. Data analysis was carried out univariate, bivariate with chi-square test. The results showed that there was an influence between physical workload (p value = 0.001) mental workload (p value 0.017) on the Application of Patient Safety during the Covid 19 Pandemic Period at Labuang Baji Hospital Makassar. It is recommended for nurses to perform stress management and adequate rest so that their workload is reduced so that the application of patient safety can be carried out properly.
