Abstrak: Gangguan pendengaran merupakan ketidakmampuan indra pendengaran seseorang dalam mendengarkan rentang suara yang masih dapat didengar oleh orang dengan pendengaran normal. Semakin berkembangnya popularitas dari tempat-tempat hiburan (diskotik, karaoke, konser musik, warung internet, dan lain sebagainya) serta penggunaan pemutar musik portabel telah menjadi sumber peningkatan angka kejadian gangguan pendengaran akibat bising (GPAB) pada usia muda. Sikap terhadap kebisingan perlu dinilai pada usia muda, hal ini dikarenakan sikap merupakan dasar dalam berperilaku, dan perilaku (terhadap kebisingan sosial) dapat mempengaruhi derajat paparan bising masing-masing orang. Kronisitas dari gejala (GPAB) membuat kaum muda kurang menanggapi serius masalah-masalah jangka panjang yang dapat ditimbulkan, serta mengambil langkah untuk mengatasinya. Tujuan: Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk memperoleh data sikap terhadap kebisingan pada siswa sekolah menengah kejuruan (SMK) Negeri 2 Manado. Metode Penelitian:Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian deskriptif observasional dengan menggunakan metode cross-sectional. Subjek penelitian adalah siswa jurusan Teknik Konstruksi Batu Beton (TKBB) SMK Negeri 2 Manado yang sudah melewati screening pendengaran awal. Hasil: Dari 20 responden yang bersedia menjadi responden penelitian, didapatkan 5 responden (25%) mempunyai sikap negatif, 10 responden (50%) mempunyai sikap netral, dan 5 responden (25%) mempunyai sikap positif.
