TRABALHADOR DE CONTRATO TEMPORÁRIO NO CENTRO DE CONTROLE DE ZOONOSES DE UBERLÂNDIA E O SERVIÇO SOCIAL COM COLETIVO: UMA APOSTA NA INVENÇÃO

Abstract

The investigative approach intends to examine the perception of quality of life of workers under temporary contract at the Zoonosis Control Center of the Municipality of Uberlândia - CCZ. The research question raised the question that the temporary contract job infers in the quality of life of the worker, reverberating in health, social relationships, work and daily life activity and that the social worker, from a critical role, safeguarding the limitations of the objective conditions of the work, with the collective could develop alternative coping demands brought from the professionals care. The investigation was structured through action research collecting qualitative data (testimonies) in the meetings for twelve times. We collect quantitative data on two occasions, before and after the meetings, using the OMS questionnaire, WHOQOL-bref-World Health Organization Quality of Life (simplified model) that aims to statistically measure the perceived quality of life. Later, we confront the data and we can see that the system of temporary contracts, one of the types of flexible working, among other strategies of productive restructure, undermines the quality of life of these workers. As regards the intervention of social work, we can observe that the collective work achieved satisfactory results promoting in the workers a significant improvement in the perception of the quality of life although it is clear to our study the weight of the social question in everyday life of these workers.
