Home office no serviço público: impactos na saúde de servidores e servidoras em uma instituição federal de ensino

This article investigates the impacts of remote work on the health of staff at a federal educational institution, in the context of the transition to remote work driven by the covid-19 pandemic. Focusing on administrative-educational staff, the study identifies the impacts of this work modality and investigates the factors affecting workers’ health. A qualitative, exploratory approach was adopted, with data collected through a sociodemographic questionnaire (76 respondents) and semi-structured interviews (18 participants), analyzed through content analysis. Results indicate that most participants experienced greater flexibility and autonomy, contrasting with increased stress and anxiety. The discussion is situated within the regulatory framework of telework in the federal public service and the specificities of administrative work in universities, linking the accounts to the psychodynamics of work and the sociology of work.
