Infeksi saluran pernapasan akut (ISPA) yang merupakan masalah kese- hatan masyarakat di Indonesia biasa menyerang anak usia di bawah usia lima tahun (balita), tetapi dapat menyerang kelompok usia produktif. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan lingkungan rumah dengan kejadian ISPA pada pekerja pabrik di Kecamatan Rungkut Surabaya. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain studi kasus kontrol dengan populasi pekerja pabrik. Kasus adalah penderita ISPA dan kontrol adalah yang tidak terkena ISPA berdasarkan diagnosis klinis. Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan wawancara terstruktur menggunakan kuesioner. Hasil analisis multivariat menunjukkan kepadatan hunian ruang tidur (nilai p = 0,003; odds ratio, OR = 15,687), kelembaban kamar (nilai p = 0,039; OR = 17,874), suhu kamar (nilai p = 0,03; OR = 14,978), ventilasi (nilai p = 0,001; OR = 19,892), lama tinggal (nilai p = 0,006; OR = 9,587), dan kebiasaan merokok (nilai p = 0,000; OR = 45,901) berhubungan bermakna dengan kejadian ISPA. Faktor yang dominan memengaruhi kejadian ISPA adalah kebiasaan merokok dan ventilasi. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian, disarankan di- lakukan perbaikan lingkungan rumah dan menghindari kebiasaan merokok.
