Several public administration agencies have sought to implement and develop Quality of Life
at Work programs, however, many difficulties have been reported, such as the absence of
situational diagnosis and the lack of minimum indicators that allow the monitoring and
evaluation of the results obtained. In this context, this research had as a general objective to
build a Quality of Life at Remote Work project for the workers of a federal educational
institution. This is a quanti-qualitative research in which action-research was used, realized in
the Rectory of a federal educational institution, in the period from April to July 2021.
Participated in the study 97 technicians-administrative in education, 7 professors and 9
interns. The data was collected in two stages: the application of the Questionnaire for the
Evaluation of Quality of Life at Remote Work and a Discussion Group formed by members of
the Commission for Quality of Life at Work of the researched institution. The quantitative
data from the questionnaire were processed using the free statistical analysis software R,
version 4.2.0. The qualitative data from the questionnaire and the discussion group were
entered into IRaMuTeQ software and analyzed using Minayo's thematic content analysis
(2010). The results indicated that the workers evaluated their Quality of Life at Remote Work
as being good, evidencing the predominance of positive aspects. Variables such as gender,
age, education, and marital status had an influence on the perception of the research
participants; however, the number of residents in the same residence proved to be of little use
to explain variations related to the structuring factors of Quality of Life at Remote Work. As a
product resulting from this study, the Quality of Life at Remote Work Project "Connected"
was built based on the needs of the workers of the researched institution.
