This type of research is descriptive. The study was carried out at the Surabaya Industrial Standardization and Research Institute in April ? May 2021. The sample in this study used the hair of welding 8 welders hair?s taken by purposive methode. Samples were read for cadmium content in AAS. The results of the study on 8 samples showed that the levels of cadmium in the hair of welding workshop workers were < 0.0277 ppm. Cadmium levels in the hair of welders in Sukoharjo district contained cadmium levels < 0.0277 ppm and did not exceed the threshold value according to the 2012 Biolab Medical Unit, which was < 0.10 ppm.
