The outbreak of COVID-19 has caused a fairly high spread of the virus, in this situation hand hygiene has a very important role. Nurses' workload and work stress affect nurses' hand hygiene compliance. The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between workload and work stress of nurses with hand hygiene compliance during the COVID-19 pandemic at Porsea Hospital. This research is a quantitative research with analytical descriptive using cross sectional. The sampling technique used was total sampling with a total of 22 respondents who participated in this study. Chi-square test was used to analyze the data. The results of this study indicate that there is a significant relationship between workload (P value = 0.008) and work stress (P value = 0.006) of nurses with hand hygiene compliance.
