Percepção do servidor do IFPE, Campus Igarassu sobre a qualidade de vida no trabalho (QVT) e sua satisfação com as políticas, programas e práticas de QVT implementadas no instituto.

Abstract

This study investigated the perception of IFPE employees, Igarassu campus, regarding Quality of Work Life (QWL) and their satisfaction with the policies, programs, and practices implemented by the Institute. To achieve this, a measurement instrument was developed based on established theories and methodologies previously used in the literature. The research adopted a mixed-methods approach, applying questionnaires to employees. The results indicate that employees recognize the importance of QWL and are aware of institutional initiatives aimed at this aspect. The Physical/Biological and Social domains were the most valued, highlighting workplace safety, operational support, and interpersonal relationships. Although most employees have a positive perception of QWL, satisfaction levels vary across the different domains analyzed. It was also observed that male employees participate more in institutional activities, suggesting the need for strategies to increase overall engagement. This research serves as feedback for managers and the human resources department at IFPE, Igarassu campus, providing insights to optimize QWL policies and foster a healthier and more productive work environment. Additionally, it strengthens the academic literature on this topic within the public education sector.
