The study design was non-experimental, with a quantitative approach and correlational level, the study population was 440 health care workers, selecting a sample of 206 by stratified random probability sampling. The instruments used were: to measure work motivation, the scale based on the self-determination theory of Lohmann et al. (2017), which measures the composition of motivation in health personnel, and to measure quality of work life, the CVL-HP scale of Hernández-Vicente et al. (2017) was used. The results obtained indicate that the health care personnel have a high level of work motivation (87%), with intrinsic and extrinsic motivation at 88% and 85% respectively. On the other hand, the quality of work life was predominantly regular (82%) and only 17% was good.
