This cross-sectional study analyzed the influence of age on the perception of finitude and quality of life (QOL) of government employees, with a non-probabilistic accessibility sample composed of 471 employees with an average age of 40. A self-administered questionnaire was used for the study. The results show that physical activity of group C had the highest average in all components and group B the lowest values, with the exception of walking. All the participants achieved good scores in the four domains of QOL (58% - 74%). In the perception of finitude, group B obtained better scores (positive perception) in the four areas, whereas groups A and C had a more negative perception, there being no significant difference between the variables. This study reveals the positive relation of finitude in the age group from 35 to 50. Positive QOL and a high level of physical activity were identified.
