Abstract This is a qualitative research carried out in a federal public hospital in the interior of the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, in 2017. The study aimed to analyze the representations of nursing teams in a federal teaching hospital about the constituent dimensions of quality of life at work. A sociodemographic questionnaire and interview with semi-structured evocation test were used. In data exploration and analysis, descriptive statistics and content analysis were used. 45 nursing workers were surveyed, most of which were women - nurses (17.8%), nursing technicians (57.8%) and nursing assistants (24.4%). Participants made it clear they knew actions aimed at quality of life at work and highlighted individual search and in external contexts to take care of their health. The paradox that arises for workers in general, and hospital nursing teams in particular, lies in the representation that work can produce illness and suffering, an important space for the performance of workers' health.
