Este artigo descreve e analisa as principais fontes de satisfacao e insatisfacao presentes no trabalho de auxiliares e assistentes que atuam em uma cooperativa operadora de saude suplementar localizada no interior de Minas Gerais. Foi realizado um estudo de caso quantitativo e qualitativo, utilizando-se uma versao reduzida do JDS (Job Diagnostic Survey), a partir de uma concepcao classica de QVT. Os resultados mais significativos do ponto de vista da satisfacao associaram-se ao inter-relacionamento e ao significado da tarefa, ao passo que os indicadores de insatisfacao relacionaram-se a autonomia e ao feedback recebido quanto ao desempenho das tarefas. Associacoes significativas foram evidenciadas entre variaveis de conteudo (variedade de habilidade, autonomia e feedback extrinseco) e de contexto da tarefa (sistema de compensacao) com o tempo de trabalho no cargo atual. A qualidade de vida no trabalho, no geral, mostrou haver associacao com a faixa etaria, tendo os empregados administrativos mais jovens demonstrado maior satisfacao neste cruzamento quando comparados aos empregados mais velhos.This paper presents a study on the concept of Environmental Management.
