Method: a cross-sectional study with 110 nursing workers from a university hospital located in the city of Rio de Janeiro who responded to the effort-reward imbalance scale and a sample characterization instrument in 2018. Bivariate analyzes were performed using Pearson's Chi-square test and Odds Ratio Estimation. Project approved by the research ethics committee. Results: effort was associated with family income and type of employment relationship, with age group and professional category showing a borderline association. The reward was not associated with any variable.
