%X The prevalence  of  metabolic  syndrome  in  workers  is  high.  Its  impact  can  lower health  status  and  disrupt  work  productivity. This  research  aimed  to  identify  the dominant factor of metabolic syndrome among workers in government agencies of the  Tanjung  Priok port,Jakarta. The  researchmethod  useddescriptive-analytic  with a  cross-sectional  design. The  study  used  secondary  data  from medical check-up records of 256 workers in Port of Tanjung Priok.

The study found that metabolic syndrome prevalencewas quite high in workers (38.7%). The results of a multivariate analysis showed physical activity (p = 0,003, OR  = 2,238), total energy (P = 0,038, OR  = 1,960), andcarbohydrate intake (p = 0,014, OR  = 0,490), together became the risk  factor of the metabolic syndrome  among  workers.  The  dominantfactor  of  metabolic  syndrome  was physical activity. The worker was susceptible to low physical activity so that the risk  of  metabolic  syndrome  was  quite  high.  The  company  should  improve  the health  promotion  programin  the  workplace  withregular  screening,improved physical  activity  and  provideahealthymeal  to  prevent  metabolic  syndrome  in workers.
