Objective: In this study, we investigate the oxidative DNA damage by the exposure to indoor air pollutants among workers in indoor office environment and 8-Hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) was used as a urinary biomarker. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in among workers in an academic institution offices, Selangor, Malaysia. Inform consent was given to the respondents prior to the data collection. Respondents were given a set of self-administered questionnaire and for urinary 8-OHdG determination, urine samples were collected at the end of their work hours. These samples were then analysed by using enzymelinked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Indoor air measurement include temperature, relative humidity (RH), carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, formaldehyde, ultrafine particle, total volatile organic compound and respirable dust while outdoor pollutants which are carbon dioxide, formaldehyde, ultrafine particle and total volatile organic were measured. Result: Bivariate analysis was conducted for correlation between mean log urinary 8-OHdG and socio-demographic variables where age (p=0.048), taking medication (p=0.003) and year of employment (p
