Summary: Working in the public sector has become the goal of a large portion of the population, aiming not only for safety but also for other benefits that are not provided by employment based on the Consolidation of Labor Laws. In some cases, such as the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Espírito Santo, which has a campus in several municipalities of the State, this search has reached the point WHERE the professionals who live in a certain municipality make a competition or even at the time of the appointment accept go someWHERE other than yours. This research sought to understand the dynamics of personal and working life of Administrative Technicians in Education (TAE) that are crowded on campus in cities of the interior. Quali-quantitative methodology with concomitant triangulation of the nested strategy type was used. The data were collected through the application of a sociodemographic questionnaire and two scales (Meanings of Work and Psychological Well-being) sent to all the TAE that work on the interior campuses, resulting in a sample of 125 participants. Complementarily, 18 interviews were carried out in order to explore in a more detailed way the results obtained. The data received through the questionnaire were treated using descriptive statistics and content analysis. The scales data were analyzed by Exploratory Factor Analysis, using Cronbach's Alpha statistics to verify the internal consistency of the factors, which were then treated by descriptive statistics. The semi-structured interview was the subject of a content analysis, in a way that complements the questionnaire. The results as to the meaning of the work for these TAE show that most consider work to be one of the most important things in life. The first two points in the order of priority in relation to work and other spheres of life were: family and work. In relation to Valued Products of Work, the most expressive factors were: social contact, self-expressive and adequate environment, pleasant and conducive. Regarding societal norms, the respondents agree that the employee must be responsible, committed and respect the hierarchy. On the other hand, they also agree that they have the right to autonomy, to development in their work, and the remuneration and the tasks distributed must be fair. In addition, employers must take care of the health of their employees, as well as maintain a pleasant work environment. Regarding the psychological well-being, it was found that it is important to work on a campus of the interior, since it provides a continuous process of development, allows to follow a way of life revealed by the level of self-realization and positive relationships with others. In general, change of city; to deal with relational problems, family and social ties did not impact on the meanings of the work attributed by TAE or on their psychological well-being. However, the same is not observed when comparing the results by indoor campuses. This dissertation was developed within the line of research Operations Management in the Public Sector. The technical product resulting from this dissertation consists of a report of suggestions to the Ifes in order to improve the permanence of the TAE in those places. KEYWORDS: Senses and Meanings of Work; Psychological well-being; Work in the Interior.
