ABSTRACT Objective to analyze whether the work environment and socio-demographic and work characteristics influence the absenteeism of nursing technicians. Method a cross-sectional and correlational study, conducted in an urgency and emergency unit with nursing technicians. Instrument applied with sociodemographic and work data, referred absenteeism and validated Brazilian version for nursing technicians of the Nursing Work Index Revised (B-NWI-R). Results a total of 62 nursing technicians participated, predominantly female, young, working from 36 to 40 hours a week and day shift. Absenteeism was reported by 33.87% of the participants and the work environment was considered favorable to the practice, with a mean of 2.47. At each point on the B-NWI-R scale, the chance of absenteeism increases by 2.63 times, that is, the more unfavorable the professional practice is to the work environment, the greater the chance of absenteeism. Conclusion a work environment unfavorable for the professional practice increases the chance of absenteeism among nursing technicians. Implications for the practice an analysis of absenteeism associated with the work environment of nursing technicians helps nursing managers to create strategies to improve the work environment.
