The questionnaire was evaluated using the difficulty level and discriminating index tests. The ten questions were examined both univariate and bivariate. Thematic analysis was used to analyze qualitative research. The quantitative and qualitative data were then integrated. Result.Age and years of service are related to question about definition of occupational diseases and occupational diseases regulation. Education level, occupational health training, and managed occupational disease are related to question about reporting occupational tuberculosis cases. Educational background is related to question about time reporting occupational tuberculosis. Four questions have a correct response frequency of less than 50%, while six questions have a correct answer frequency greater than 50%.
