This study aimed to determine the relationship between work stress levels and physical health disorders among employees of PT. X Batam. A cross-sectional design was applied with 42 respondents selected through purposive sampling.

The findings revealed that most respondents experienced physical health disorders, including cardiovascular disorders (76.2%), sleep disorders (81%), digestive problems (90.5%), musculoskeletal disorders (59.5%), and decreased immune function (88.1%). Statistical analysis indicated a significant association between work stress levels and all five types of physical health disorders (p < 0.05), with the strongest correlation observed in digestive problems.
