Objective: to analyze factors associated with full hepatitis B vaccination in primary health care workers. Methods: cross-sectional research involving primary care health workers through the application of an instrument, verification of vaccination records, and blood collection to detect serological markers. Results: the prevalence of complete vaccination records was 108 (68.5%). White, brown, and Asian persons were significantly associated (p<0.05) with a reduction in the prevalence of full vaccination records; the same was true for having more than one employment. Having finished high school/technical education or having higher education/specializations were associated with complete records. Conclusion: full vaccination was satisfactory, showing a high prevalence. Social factors, such as ethnicity, educational level, and the number of employments influenced full vaccination. Contributions to practice: this study can guide practices and interventions in the field of health, in order to promote the health of primary care workers.
