  The objective of this article is to present the structure and psychometric properties of the Brazilian version of The Work Well-Being Questionnaire. This was developed with the aim of providing a measurement tool particularly sensitive to the psychosocial dimension of work well-being, and to the bipolar nature of the well-being experience. The questionnaire was applied to a convenience and intentional sample, constituted by 101 teachers of a higher education community institution in the south of Santa Catarina. Factor analysis shows two independent factors in The Work Well-Being Questionnaire, considering the first of three scales of psychosocial well-being (emotions, skills and expectations) and the second, three other side effects (somatization, wear and alienation). The scales showed high internal consistency with Cronbach’s alphas of 95, 95, 97, 88, 93 and 80, respectively. The Work Well-Being Questionnaire faithfully reproduces the structure of the theoretical model assumed and meets the technical properties needed to assess the work well-being in university environments.
