Objective: to validate the Brazilian version of the Practice Environment Scale (PES) between technicians and nursing assistants. Method: a methodological study, carried out in a university hospital in the interior of São Paulo. The sample consisted of 91 professionals who provided direct assistance to the patient and who worked in the unit for more than three months. For data collection, a personal and professional characterization form was used, the Brazilian version of PES, the emotional exhaustion subscale of the Maslach Burnout Inventory, and the job satisfaction and safety climate subscales of the Safety Attitudes Questionnaire Short Form. For reliability assessment, the Cronbach alpha coefficient was calculated and for validity evaluation, the PES subscale scores were correlated with the scores of the other variables, using the Spearman correlation coefficient. Results: all correlations showed significant (p <0.05) and the alpha coefficient reached values equal to or greater than 0.6 in all subscales of the instrument. Conclusion: the Brazilian version of PES between technicians and nursing assistants is a valid and reliable tool to evaluate the characteristics of the nursing work environment.
