Abstract

This paper describes factors of material environment that are particularly important for employees comfort on the example of a selected University. The main goal of the presented research was to identify factors of work comfort related to material and social-living conditions of work and their assessment based on the opinion of employees in a selected institution. A two-stage study conducted in 2016–2018 among 440 university employees made it possible to identify factors relevant to the comfort of work, mainly related to material conditions. Based on the opinions of university employees (questionnaires and interviews), problem areas were identified in the scope of shaping comfortable working conditions.
