Resumo O artigo investiga a correlação entre engajamento e qualidade de vida no trabalho dos profissionais de enfermagem de um hospital público do interior do estado de São Paulo, no início da pandemia de COVID-19. Estudo transversal, descritivo e correlacional, com profissionais de enfermagem, realizado entre dezembro de 2020 e janeiro de 2021. Foram utilizadas as versões brasileiras da Utrecht Work Engagement Scale (UWES) e da Escala de Avaliação da Qualidade de Vida no Trabalho (QVT), segundo modelo de Walton. Os profissionais de enfermagem apresentaram correlação forte e positiva (r≥0.70) entre o domínio integração social da QVT e a dimensão vigor da UWES (r=0,88; p=<0,001); correlação positiva moderada (r≥0.40≤0.69) entre as condições de trabalho (QVT) e as dimensões vigor (r=0,40; p=<0,001), dedicação (r=0,40; p=<0,001) e escore geral (r=0,41; p=<0,001) da UWES. As correlações foram positivas e fracas (r≤0.39) para os demais domínios da QVT e as dimensões da UWES. Concluiu-se que os profissionais com níveis satisfatórios de qualidade de vida tendem a ter níveis mais altos de engajamento no trabalho. No início da pandemia de COVID-19, os profissionais de enfermagem estavam fortemente engajados e satisfeitos com sua qualidade de vida no trabalho. Paulo COVID19.

Abstract This article investigates the correlation between work engagement and work-related quality of life among nursing staff at a public hospital in São Paulo State, at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. A descriptive, correlational, cross-sectional study of nursing personnel was conducted from December 2020 to January 2021, using the Brazilian versions of the Work & Well-being Survey (Utrecht Work Engagement Scale - UWES) and the Work-related Quality of Life (WRQoL) scale, following Walton’s model. Nursing staffs returned a strong positive correlation (r≥0.70) between the social integration domain of the WRQoL and the vigour dimension of the UWES (r=0.88; p=<0.001); a moderate positive correlation (r≥0.40≤0.69) between working conditions (WRQOL) and the vigour (r=0.40; p<0.001), dedication (r=0.40; p<0.001) and overall score (r=0.41; p<0.001) dimensions of the UWES. Correlations were positive and weak (r≤0.39) for the other WRQoL domains and the UWES dimensions. It was concluded that personnel with satisfactory levels of quality of life tend to show higher levels of engagement at work. At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, nursing professionals were strongly engaged and satisfied with their work-related quality of life. workrelated related State COVID19 COVID 19 COVID-1 pandemic descriptive correlational crosssectional cross sectional 202 2021 Wellbeing Well being Utrecht Workrelated (WRQoL scale Waltons Walton s model r≥0.70 r070 r 0 70 (r≥0.70 r=0.88 r088 88 (r=0.88 p=<0.001 p0001 p 001 p=<0.001) r≥0.40≤0.69 r040069 40 69 (r≥0.40≤0.69 WRQOL (WRQOL r=0.40 r040 (r=0.40 p<0.001, p<0.001 , r=0.41 r041 41 (r=0.41 r≤0.39 r039 39 (r≤0.39 COVID1 1 COVID- 20 r≥0.7 r07 7 (r≥0.7 r=0.8 r08 8 (r=0.8 p=<0.00 p000 00 r≥0.40≤0.6 r04006 4 6 (r≥0.40≤0.6 r=0.4 r04 (r=0.4 p<0.00 r≤0.3 r03 3 (r≤0.3 2 r≥0. r0 (r≥0. r=0.
