Abstract: Objective: To describe the working conditions and health satisfaction of teachers in Guanambi, Bahia, Brazil. Method: This descriptive, population-based cross-sectional study was conducted through the administration of an online questionnaire.

Regarding material resources, 50% considered them adequate for lesson delivery; 45.80% described the infrastructure as average; and 41.70% rated the equipment and didactic materials as average. Most respondents reported positive interpersonal relationships (58.30%), a favorable school environment (64.50%), an appropriate workload (54.20%), a suitable number of students per class (52.10%), and satisfactory institutional support (43.80%). Nearly all participants reported not having experienced physical violence (95.80%). Conclusion: Teachers in Guanambi expressed satisfaction with their health, although they were not fully satisfied with their work and reported that it interferes with their personal lives. Dissatisfaction was also noted regarding several aspects of the working conditions, such as infrastructure, the physical environment, and the availability of didactic resources.
