SUMMARY:

The present study aims to understand the perception of technical-administrative employees and teachers at UFCA about the Quality of Life at Work in this higher education institution, and its relationship with the well-being of employees. To this end, a descriptive study was carried out, with a quantitative-qualitative approach and with a cross-sectional approach. Data collection consisted of applying a sociodemographic questionnaire and the Quality of Life at Work Assessment Inventory (IA_QVT), in online format. 262 employees participated in the study, 146 technicians and 116 teachers, totaling 41% of the total population of active UFCA employees on the date the research was carried out. Quantitative data were analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software. The treatment of qualitative data was anchored by the content analysis proposed by Laurence Bardin. The results demonstrate that, in the perception of the employees, the QWL at UFCA is evaluated satisfactorily, with its overall QWL level and the structuring factors, namely Working Conditions, Socio-professional Relations, Professional Recognition and Growth and the Work-Social Life Link, within a satisfactory QWL zone. The Work Organization factor was evaluated in the QWL transition zone, with a negative trend. Interpersonal interactions, satisfaction with the profession, good working conditions and the perception of carrying out socially useful work stood out as promoters of well-being. Among the promoters of malaise, working conditions, conflicts, inadequate management practices and work organization also stood out. It is concluded that this research provides support for QWL actions at UFCA, in order to maintain the aspects evaluated as generating well-being at work, but also to act on those that are identified as causing discomfort, so that they are eliminated or at least minimized.
