This research approach the health promotion and surveillance actions carried out by the Federal University of Ceará (UFC) for the benefit of its employees. It is presented the Quality of Life at Work Coordination and projects implemented by the Division of Psychosocial Support (DiAPS), especially those that compose the Health and Welfare at Work Program. Then, with bibliography based on the laws and theories about National Policy on Health and Safety at Work of the Federal Civil Servants (PASS), the program’s actions and its challenges in the University are explained with emphasis on the health promotion and surveillance axis. The research has exploratory and descriptive approach. It was concluded that DiAPS has social projects that are aligned with legal norms related to health care policy of the federal public work. Its actions give support to the debate about the health-disease process and about social and epidemiological profile of the servers of the Academic Unit. As challenges, there is a need for quantitative participation of the servants on the projects, expansion of multidisciplinary framework and greater “capillarity” of activities undertaken in relation to the geographical areas of the University.
