The work environment constitutes an environment in which activities and work relationships occur, which can occur in closed or open spaces. This is a text prepared through qualitative research, developed through a bibliographical review, whose general objective is to conceptualize the work environment and examine how some factors, such as: communication noise, toxic leadership, moral harassment , sexual harassment, unequal treatment of workers, seen mainly from the perspective of discrimination, and environmental problems considered traditional, strongly influence the sustainability of the work environment, acting as if they were true environmental impacts. In the end, we seek to present some suggestions to recover the sustainability, especially social, of this environment, such as, for example, the need to remodel the organizational culture of work environments, empowering leaders for democratic, collaborative action and not directed solely for profit, as well as having clearer, more precise and respectful communication towards others.PDFAcesso AbertoImpactos ambientaisSustentabilidadeRestauraçãoDissertação de mestradoLegislação Ambiental
