There are many attributions of the nursing profession in hospital medical care and one of its fundamental principles is the commitment to health. Resilience and well-being at work are important phenomena to discuss health promotion in adverse contexts and quality of life related to work. Methodology of descriptive and correlational analysis of the collected data, exploratory factor analysis, and Spearman correlation was used. The objective of this work is to understand if there is influence of the socio-demographic variables on the well-being at work and the resilience. A sample of 131 hospital nursing technicians, ages between 20 to 69 years, was employed. The theoretical models utilized were the Inventory of Well-being at Work (IBET- and the Resilience Scale for Adults (RSA). It was possible to verify that there is a significant influence of the sociodemographic variables on the index and the indicators of well-being at work. This influence was, specifically, in the variable work sector. The results found made it possible to understand the dimensions of well-being at work and resilience studies.
