N2  - Aim: The aim of this work is to measure the indicators of oxidative stress  as malondialdehyde  and superoxide dismutase enzyme activity levels in blood and their association with copper and  arsenic levels among secondary copper smelter workers. Conclusion: The oxidative stress biomarker as malondialdehyde (MDA) was significantly increased with exposure to copper dusts and fumes.  It was positively related to copper and arsenic levels. While superoxide dismutase enzyme activity was significantly reduced, and it was negatively related to copper and arsenic levels. The disruption of hemostasis induced by oxidative stress may promote the development of health hazards with continued occupational exposure to copper fumes
