AB This research proposes analyzing the influence of new ways of working (NWW) onhealthcare professional’s well-being and how these may affect work performance and publicservice motivation. These variables and relationships were important before COVID-19 pandemic,and everything points to the fact that during and after the pandemic their importance will be higher.To buffer the potential negative effects of implementing the NWW, both organizations and employeesmust identify personal (psychological capital) and job resources (inter-role conflict, psychologicalempowerment, meaning of work) capable of acting as effective moderators to promote employeewell-being and avoid negative experiences at work. This paper aims to shed light on new ways ofcoping and adapting to uncertain job requirements such as those that have arisen during COVID-19.Moreover, it highlights the great changes that public healthcare needs to face to improve the qualityof the service offered to society. It is urgent that public administrators and human resources managersdesign effective strategies and make effective decisions in which employee well-being and servicequality are main priorities.
