Indonesia saat ini masih menggunakan bensin bertimbal dengan tingkat pencemaran timbal di udara tinggi. Jakarta Barat merupakan wilayah di DKI Jakarta yang paling padat dilalui kendaraan bermotor. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah diketahuinya hubungan kadar timbal di dalam darah terhadap terjadinya hipertensi pada polisi yang bekerja di jalan dan faktor-faktor lain, seperti obesitas, riwayat keluarga hipertensi, kebiasaan merokok, konsumsi kopi, perilaku memakai masker dan olahraga dengan terjadinya hipertensi. Metode penelitian: Penelitian ini dilakukan di wilayah kerja polsek Jakarta Barat. Populasi penelitian adalah polisi yang bekerja di jalan. Disain penelitian adalah studi Cross Sectional, dengan analisis kasus kontrol, 30 kasus dan 60 kontrol diikutsertakan dalam penelitian ini. Kasus diperoleh dengan cara consecutive sampling. Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan cara wawancara, pengukuran berat badan, pengukuran tinggi badan, pengukuran tekanan darah dan analisis kadar timbal dalam darah. Hasil penelitian: Rerata kadar timbal di dalam darah adalah 19.83 pg/dl, dengan nilai median 18.80 pg/dl. Terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara faktor obesitas (OR = 5,l) riwayat keluarga hipertensi (0R=17,68) dan kadar Pb dalam darah (0R=4,5) dengan kejadian hipertensi. Kesimpulan dan Saran: Ada pengaruh kadar timbal di dalam darah, dengan kejadian hipertensi. Saran yang diajukan adalah melakukan pemeriksaan kadar timbal dalam darah minimal sekali setahun, termasuk melakukan upaya penurunan pajanan timbal, dan menumnkan berat badan polisi yang bekerja di jalan.
