The objective of this study was to analyze the impact of occupational health on the teleworking system of teachers at private higher education institutions in Cajamarca, 2025. A quantitative, explanatory, non-experimental, cross-sectional design was used. The sample consisted of 198 teachers selected through simple probability sampling, who were given a questionnaire validated by expert judgment and with high reliability (α > 0.80). Spearman's analysis showed a very high positive correlation between occupational health and teleworking (ρ = 0.985; p < 0.001). Likewise, significant associations were identified with the following dimensions: organizational culture (ρ = 0.749), technological tools (ρ = 0.911), process optimization (ρ = 0.712), and training (ρ = 0.903). These findings confirm that occupational health is a determining factor in the perception and effectiveness of teleworking for teachers, particularly in contexts with technological limitations such as Cajamarca. It is concluded that strengthening institutional policies on ergonomics, psychosocial support, and digital training promotes teacher well-being and productivity, contributing to the sustainability of educational institutions in virtual environments. © 2026.
