Different work environments and working conditions can affect or influence levels of well-being and job satisfaction. This study's aim was to analyze the well-being and job satisfaction of 66 psychologists working in the public healthcare services of two municipal healthcare centers and a federal university. Data were submitted to descriptive, variance and correlation analyses. The results revealed general averages with values close to the scales' midpoints. The analysis of variance among the groups of psychologists working in the three different facilities showed significant differences in levels of satisfaction regarding working conditions and the perception of accomplishment/expressiveness. The satisfaction scales were significantly correlated with the well-being scales. The conclusion is that the results show possible interventions designed to reduce or eliminate negative factors and increase well-being and job satisfaction.
