Hearing loss due to noise or Noise Induced Hearing Loss (NIHL), a disorder that cannot be cured, is permanent, irreversible and preventable. The aim of the research was to determine the knowledge, attitudes and behavior of online motorcycle taxi drivers in Jakarta regarding hearing loss due to the use of earphones. This research took place from March - April 2023. The research design used was descriptive research with a cross sectional study approach. The number of samples for this research was 61 respondents based on the Lemeshow formula. The data collection technique uses a Google form link that has been created, then the data is processed using univariate analysis.
