Objective: to analyze the association between job satisfaction and the sociodemographic and work profile of nurses at a university hospital. Method: cross-sectional study with 134 nurses of both sexes and regardless of length of experience. Those on sick leave and vacation were excluded. Sociodemographic and labor questionnaire and the Job Satisfaction Scale were applied. The chi-square test was performed between the variables “satisfaction” and “personal and professional profile” (95% CI). Results: it was observed that 49.3% were satisfied at work, 41.0% were indifferent and 9.7% were dissatisfied. Between profile and level of satisfaction, there was a significant difference for “age group”, “desire to change jobs” and “working hours”. Conclusion: relationship between age, working hours and job change increased job satisfaction or dissatisfaction contributed to the adoption of measures to maintain satisfaction and reverse indifference, a worrying fact in the context of nursing workers' health.
