The continuous trends of change due the fluctuation generated by the society, makes the organizations worry more often about the various resources that make up the operations, leaving the human element aside, although the human element turns out to be the priority most of the time. The human resource is responsible for developing most of the activities as well as managing the other resources for the well-being, therefore the emotional state can be an element that influences work performance, and even triggering loss and non-fulfilled goals required to fulfill essential indicators. Thus the objective of this research is to define if there is a relationship between work motivation and work performance of the workers in the healthcare sector during post-pandemic. A simple linear regression model application will be used to obtain the results, as well as the ANOVA analysis which will demonstrate a critical value calculated in .889 and a p-value of .354 for the indicator “work motivation” in relation with the variable “work performance”, finding a positive reciprocity between the subject of study variables proving that work motivation does affects the employees’ work performance.
