    This research investigates the influence of social medial on work-life balance within the institutional context. Data were collected using a survey questionnaire with 51 questions in five dimensions, which was applied through the "Google Forms" virtual platform. For the study, a descriptive survey was applied, with the participation of 228 professors from the Federal Institute of Santa Catarina [IFSC]. Through the statistical technique of logistic regression, it was possible to verify the interference of the use of social media on the work environment from the teachers’ perspective. It was also concluded that teachers who use social media evaluate their access as infrequent, sometimes during the working day. Based on an analysis of the responses gathered, this work concludes that social media has a moderate impact on work-life balance.
