This study uses an analytical observational design with a Cross-Sectional approach. The sampling technique using the simple random sampling method was carried out randomly with a sample of 397 respondents using the Slovin formula. Research results there is a significant relationship between the level of education and workers with the level of community participation in preventing the spread of COVID-19.
