Quality of life is associated with physical health, psychological state, level of independence, social relationships, personal beliefs and their relationship to salient features of their environment, reporting to a subjective evaluation, embedded in a cultural, social, environmental and professional context. On the other hand, some authors argue that people’s quality of life depends on their access to certain social and economic goods and services that naturally vary depending on the culture the subjects are inserted in. The pandemic brought about nefarious consequences to people’s routines and their quality of life. Some companies stopped or reduced production, and adopted telework, facing the governmental measures that emerged to tackle the pandemic. However, most IPSSs (Private Social Solidarity Institutions) kept with their work, which lead to physical and emotional burnout. This study aims to assess the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in the quality of life of IPSS workers, using the WHOQOL-BREF scale. We have found that workers hold a “reasonable” perception both of their quality of life and the state of their health. The physical, social and environmental domains, which were defined as facets of quality of life, were rated between “reasonable” and “good”. The psychological domain was rated the lowest, with a “reasonable” rate. We were able to establish a negative correlation between two domains (physical and environmental) and age. Conversely, level of education was positively correlated with the physical, psychological and environmental domains. |
