Abstract

The concept of work and the knowledge about how important its in human being´s life changes, and following the new paradigms, the new tecnologies, and the new needs that arise in the process of social and economic evolution. In the history of human evolution the way of each worker understood the company and his role as a partner, promotes changes in production ways, working conditions and in the organizational environment. This was the starting for research on quality of work life (QWL) and what hás already been written about QWL, brings the concept of QWL, as well the multiple Theories of Motivation under the Worker´s perception. Questionnaires were applied to Tecnologia em Gestão da Qualidade (TGQ) students, who are public or private sector workers and a comparison was drawn using the Walton´s QWL. It was analyzed how these individuals perceive QWL considering their different work environments, what role the work plays in their lives off work and how QWL influences their students performance. It has been understood that workplaces in a private enterprise and in a public institutions may differ in levels of productivity stress and disputes by position or departaments, but also may show similarities as the thought that their working hours exhaust the forces that favor the study. It is considered that research is relevant for students and professors as a tool that can identify deficiences and new demands that arise during academy activities for continuous improvement and consolidation of the TGQ course as a qualification to the people both internal and external of the university.
