Abstract

Healthcare workers in disaster-prone areas face unique occupational challenges that affect their resilience and workload. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between resilience levels and workload among healthcare workers at Puskesmas Peusangan, Bireuen Regency, Aceh Province, Indonesia.

Resilience was measured using the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC-25) Indonesian version, while workload was assessed using the NASA Task Load Index (NASA-TLX). Quantitative data were analyzed using Spearman correlation and multiple linear regression, while qualitative data underwent thematic analysis. Results showed that 43.7% of respondents had moderate resilience levels, while 51.7% experienced high workload. A significant negative correlation was found between resilience and workload (r=-0.486, p
