Which one is correct?

Since my work is finished at 5 pm, I am not able to come at 6 pm / As my woork is finished at 5 pm I am not able to come at 6 pm

Hi, Either since or as would work, but nevertheless I wouldn't opt for as : it sounds overly formal. I would also change not able to to unable to . Be sure to end your sentence with a period.

Hi,

Since my work is finished at 5 pm, I am not able to come at 6 pm / As my woork is finished at 5 pm I am not able to come at 6 pm

Neither is very idiomatic. I suggest
eg As / Since I finish work at 5 pm, I am not able to / can't come at 6 pm.
