This study is the translation, cultural adaptation and validation of the scale of Organizational Citizenship Behavior for Knowledge Workers (OCB-KW), developed by Dekas (2010) and Dekas, Bauer, Welle et al. (2013). The protocol suggested by Beaton, Bombardier, Guillemin et al. (2000) was used, composed of the translation stages, synthesis, back-translation, evaluation committee, equivalence of pre-test and submission and appraisal. Furthermore, by means of a pilot study, the final version of the instrument was applied to a sample of 247 individuals. As results, the scale of OCB-KW was validated, presented adequate reliability indices and can be used in future studies in the area of administration, increasing the production of scientific knowledge on the subject.
