Precarious work, in contrast to regular, permanent wage work, is commonly associated to insecure and unstable, and often poor quality jobs. The concept of precarious work relates either to a socioeconomic group which allows one to refer it to a "class in itself," or as - pursued more recently - to the precarization process which results in a growing fragmentation of societal structures. Common to both conceptions is that they refer to the exposition of workers to employment instability, limited access to legal and union protection, socially irresponsible and discriminating employment practices, and social and economic vulnerability in general. The present contribution provides an overview of some key issues and future directions of research on precarious work relevant to CSR researchers, policy-makers, and social scientists.

European labour markets are increasingly divided between insiders in full-time permanent employment and outsiders in precarious work or unemployment. Using quantitative as well as qualitative methods, this thesis investigates the determinants and consequences of labour market policies that target these outsiders in three separate papers. The first paper looks at Active Labour Market Policies (ALMPs) that target the unemployed. It shows that left and right-wing parties choose different types of ALMPs depending on the policy and the welfare regime in which the party is located. These findings reconcile the conflicting theoretical expectations from the Power Resource approach and the insider-outsider theory. The second paper considers the regulation and protection of the temporary work sector. It solves the puzzle of temporary re-regulation in France, which contrasts with most other European countries that have deregulated temporary work. Permanent workers are adversely affected by the expansion of temporary work in France because of general skills and low wage coordination. The interests of temporary and permanent workers for re-regulation therefore overlap in France and left governments have an incentive to re-regulate the sector. The third paper then investigates what determines inequality between median and bottom income workers. It shows that non-inclusive economic coordination increases inequality in the absence of compensating institutions such as minimum wage regulation. The deregulation of temporary work as well as spending on employment incentives and rehabilitation also has adverse effects on inequality. Thus, policies that target outsiders have important economic effects on the rest of the workforce. Three broader contributions can be identified. First, welfare state policies may not always be in the interests of labour, so left parties may not always promote them. Second, the interests of insiders and outsiders are not necessarily at odds. Third, economic coordination may not be conducive to egalitarianism where it is not inclusive.

La globalizaci??n econ??mica ha impactado fuertemente en el mercado laboral europeo, abriendo puertas para el trabajo precario. Mientras el capital se torna global, el trabajo permanece local y m??s sumiso a los flujos econ??micos mundiales. Adem??s, los patrones de la sociedad de consumo se han consolidado, promoviendo nuevas desigualdades sociales y aumentando los riesgos de exclusi??n y vulnerabilidad social. La ca??da progresiva del industrialismo tambi??n afecta las principales bases de la estructura social como los roles de g??nero o las relaciones familiares. Diferentes redes aparecen como clave para la inclusi??n, especialmente en el actual contexto de crisis del Estado de Bienestar Social en que se encuentra Europa. Es decir, el an??lisis de la exclusi??n social debe tener en cuenta la evoluci??n de las pol??ticas sociales en toda Europa y la tendencia actual de descentralizaci??n y focalizaci??n de los ser vicios sociales. El objetivo de este art??culo es, por lo tanto, no s??lo describir el fen??meno de la exclusi??n social, sino tambi??n lanzar ideas para construir nuevos criterios de redefinici??n de las pol??ticas sociales.

Este trabalho analisa o Programa de Residência Multiprofissional em Saúde, com objetivo de identificar como o Programa de Residência Multiprofissional em Saúde, desenvolvido pelo Ministério da Educação e pelo Ministério da Saúde a partir de 2005, tem se constituído como uma proposta de política de formação profissional para o SUS. Foi realizada pesquisa documental com análise de conteúdo que possibilitou configurar a Política Nacional de Gestão da Educação na Saúde, na área de formação do ensino superior, especificamente na pós-graduação, onde se situa a modalidade Residências Multiprofissionais. As legislações do Sistema Único de Saúde para a formação dessa política determinam diretrizes para a formação na área da saúde baseadas na integração ensino/Serviço. São eixos que se destacam no interior do processo de constituição da política de formação profissional e são as bases dos Programas de Residência Multiprofissional em Saúde. Constatou-se que houve, na primeira metade dos anos 2000, o surgimento de inúmeros atores (fóruns de residentes, coordenadores e preceptores) que estiveram presentes na luta para estruturação da Comissão Nacional de Residência Multiprofissional em Saúde, também presentes na disputa acirrada da composição e da luta pelo reconhecimento das Residências Multiprofissionais, a partir do ano 2005. Há um campo que coloca interesses em confronto e por onde caminha a definição da base legal para institucionalização do Programa. Polariza-se e ganha força posicionamentos corporativistas indo contra aos pressupostos do perfil profissional para a saúde. Ao mesmo tempo observa-se o esvaziamento das Residências na atenção básica e o movimento do Ministério da Saúde e do Ministério da Educação para implantar as Residências Multiprofissionais nos Hospitais Universitários Federais, direcionando especialmente aos serviços de alta complexidade. Os riscos podem ser observados na conformação da formação em saúde no plano da tarefa do fazer. Frente ao contexto de precarização do trabalho, fragiliza-se a presença dos residentes para cobrir o déficit de trabalhadores nas instituições de saúde, tornando necessárias uma intensa defesa e afirmação dos residentes enquanto profissionais em formação e não profissionais de serviço. Diante desse quadro fica a dúvida quanto ao papel das Residências Multiprofissionais nas transformações do modo de se produzir saúde e formação profissional. Por outro lado a observação dos vários aspectos vinculados à residência tem demonstrado também que elas, contraditoriamente, tem sido, ou podem ser, também um reduto importante de resistência à sucumbência dos novos contornos que vêm sendo desenhado no próprio SUS. E que apesar desse contexto, elas têm sido importantes como qualificação dos serviços e dos profissionais. Há um consenso em torno da importância das presenças dos residentes e dos tutores nos serviços, através dos seus questionamentos para rompimento com práticas de cunho conservador, pois a presença dos residentes nas equipes multiprofissionais pode assumir esse enfrentamento.

Background: Previous studies have shown that immigrant workers face relatively worse working and employment conditions, as well as lower rates of sickness absence than native-born workers. This study aims to assess rates of sickness presenteeism in a sample of Spanish-born and foreign-born workers according to different characteristics. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted amongst a convenience sample of workers (Spanish-born and foreign-born), living in four Spanish cities: Barcelona, Huelva, Madrid and Valencia (2008-2009). Sickness presenteeism information was collected through two items in the questionnaire ("Have you had health problems in the last year?" and "Have you ever had to miss work for any health problem?") and was defined as worker who had a health problem (answered yes, first item) and had not missed work (answered no, second item). For the analysis, the sample of 2,059 workers (1,617 foreign-born) who answered yes to health problems was included. After descriptives, logistic regressions were used to establish the association between origin country and sickness presenteeism (adjusted odds ratios aOR; 95% confidence interval 95%CI). Analyses were stratified per time spent in Spain among foreign-born workers. Results: All of the results refer to the comparison between foreign-born and Spanish-born workers as a whole, and in some categories relating to personal and occupational conditions. Foreign-born workers were more likely to report sickness presenteeism compared with their Spanish-born counterparts, especially those living in Spain for under 2 years [Prevalence: 42% in Spanish-born and 56.3% in Foreign-born; aOR 1.77 95%CI 1.24-2.53]. In case of foreign-born workers (with time in Spain < 2 years), men [aOR 2.31 95%CI 1.40-3.80], those with university studies [aOR 3.01 95%CI 1.04-8.69], temporary contracts [aOR 2.26 95%CI 1.29-3.98] and salaries between 751-1,200€ per month [aOR 1.74 95% CI 1.04-2.92] were more likely to report sickness presenteeism. Also, recent immigrants with good self-perceived health and good mental health were more likely to report presenteeism than Spanish-born workers with the same good health indicators. Conclusions: Immigrant workers report more sickness presenteeism than their Spanish-born counterparts. These results could be related to precarious work and employment conditions of immigrants. Immigrant workers should benefit from the same standards of social security, and of health and safety in the workplace that are enjoyed by Spanish workers.

The purpose of this study is to analyze, from the point of view of nurses, changes that took place in the process of providing health services after the introduction of the Family Health Program (FHP). It is na investigation of qualitative nature that uses semi-structured interviews as a main empirical approach tool. Six nurses from the city of Caicó, Rio Grande do Norte, who were working with basic care before the introduction of the FHP, within basic care, were: adscription and ties with the community; hospitality and the humanizacion of care-giving; decrease in cases of inpatient treatment; strengthening of the prevention of injuries and health promotion; improvemente of health indicatiors, finally, actions that point towads meeting the principles of wholeness, equity and universality as a declaration of the Brazilian National Health Care System (SUS). Nevertheless, in spite of all recognizable positive aspects, the FHP has some weaknesses, such as: the difficulty posed by colletive work; the mismatch between professional education and the demands of the current health standard; a poor physical infrastructure of the Basic Health Units; a high heath staff turnover and precarious work conditions. In addition to this, some strategies that can be used to help improve the process of providing health services have been pointed out, such as, coordination between sectors, continuous education, making work conditions less precarious and improving the means whereby heathy service management is conveyed,Tthus, finally, we understand that the FHP does bring forward meaningful changes to the process of provinding health services to strengthen the Brasilian National Health Care System (SUS), in spite of the fact that it lies within a scenario of adversities that can be overcome through the collective endeavor of the several social actors

Precarization of work, process situated historically after the third Industrial Revolution, express itself as one of the faces of changes in production modus and working conditions. The present study aims to identify the process of work precarization in supermarket sector in Natal municipality. The choice for this sector and professional category is based on low investment in studies on the commercial sector and on technological and administrative transformations that supermarkets have implemented. After a bibliographical review, ten indicators of precarization were chosen which permitted to set up a schedule to interviews and its application to employees of two supermarkets (local companies) in Natal area. The following working functions were chosen to participate in the survey: cashier, display assistant (shelf-stacker) and attendants (N=6). From the interviews we developed an analysis of categorical contents in order to identify the presence of precarization indicators. Categorizations allowed us to identify five major themes: work categorization; work meaning: its attributes; work meaning: work centrality; comments on the employment of apprentices or trainees; and transversal work contents. Such themes contents express or not the presence of precarization process at supermarket sector in Natal area. Precarious work is identified in participants speech when they refer to the employees decreasing power in salaries negotiation between them and employers that institute the precarious work conditions

Our dissertation deals with the material living conditions of women workers and the relations of the wage who undergo in the hospital scope, taking as the locus of empirical research the Hospital Dr. João Machado, located in Natal / RN. Its purpose is to analyze the main implications of precarious work contracts in the economic and social dimensions from life of workers, explaining the main conditionings. The majority presence of women in wage relations not only in the hospital service, as well as in the service sector in general has motivated us to appreciation of the form of participation of women in health services and, in particular, at the hospital space. From the critical dialectical method, through processes of successive approximations to the reality, we analyze the patriarchal system of social relations and their repercussions for the Social and Sexual Division of Labor in the context of contemporary capitalist society, explaining the determinants of inequality, founded in social relations of sex, to the predominance of women in the hospital service and unveiling these participation trends in the labor market. The analyzes are based on bibliographic research - theoretical and methodological basis of research - combined with reflections that emerged from the field. The systematized and analyzed information reveal the uniqueness of the current social and economic situation of workers women with ties outsourced, paradoxically expresses on the expansion of the insertion in universe of labor, in overexploitation, in the precariousness of work and living conditions and persistent inequality in and in the social relations and in relations between the sexes

Esta investigação teve como objetivo analisar as condições de trabalho e saúde dos professores de Educação Física do Município de Belém-PA. Para tanto, foi necessário entender como a saúde destes professores era afetada a partir dos processos de precariedade do trabalho no capitalismo contemporâneo. Foi organizado um quadro teórico a fim de dar suporte para o debate em questão. Refere-se inicialmente a crise do capitalismo na década de 70, o qual se caracterizou como a crise do petróleo. Em um segundo momento destacou-se as políticas de ajustes econômicos e políticos que refletiam na estrutura básica do funcionamento da educação. O reordenamento do capital exige modificações no entendimento do papel da educação de um país, logo foi mostrado como as políticas mais gerais afetam a educação brasileira e a vida dos professores. Foi neste bojo que se analisou a partir dos dados encontrados na pesquisa de campo, as condições de trabalho destes professores tendo como variáveis a jornada de trabalho, salário, quantidade de turmas, locais de trabalho etc. Por último, analisou-se a questão de saúde dos docentes, identificando os principais problemas como as patologias encontradas, os acidentes de trabalho, a relação que se tem com o plano de saúde oferecido pela prefeitura, a periodicidade de ida ao médico etc. Neste estudo foram aplicados 22 questionários, sendo 11 com professores do sexo feminino e 11 do sexo masculino, sendo que das 11 professoras colaboradoras, 02 participaram da entrevista. Como resultado desta investigação foi possível inferir que: a) O processo de precariedade do trabalho dos professores de Educação Física tem se mostrado extremamente evidente e com consequências para vida e saúde destes trabalhadores; b) O fenômeno da violência nas escolas é parte fundamental do processo de precariedade do trabalho dos professores; c) Problemas fonoaudiológicos foram os mais evidentes nos pesquisados, além de problemas mentais; d) Através da leitura de outras pesquisas sobre a condição de precariedade do trabalho e saúde, é possível conjecturar uma tendência crescente em níveis de maior proporção sobre este tema; e) Os maiores índices de doenças ocupacionais referem-se aos professores do sexo feminino, ratificando que no precário mundo do trabalho essa tendência de adoecimento é prevalente. Conclui-se que é necessário a criação de espaços nas escolas públicas para se pensar a questão do trabalho e da saúde dos professores e estes juntamente com outros profissionais da educação formem autonomamente suas propostas de viabilização destes ambientes. Para tanto, é preciso antes, pensar na possibilidade de formação e construção do professor militante, o qual possa ser sujeito destas transformações. Cabe então ao professor colaborar como sujeito histórico para o processo de ruptura necessária do capital em crise.

Essa tese doutoral procurou entender a precarização do trabalho e o adoecimento docente em instituições de ensino superior privadas. E partiu de uma opção teórica que considera o trabalho fundamental para o processo de hominização e humanização do homem e adotando como método investigativo o materialismo histórico dialético. Nesse sentido, procurou investigar o seguinte problema: que relação pode ser estabelecida entre a precarização do trabalho e a saúde do docente em instituições da rede privada de ensino superior? A partir do problema levantado algumas questões norteadoras surgiram diante da necessidade de orientar melhor a coleta e análise de dados: a) as principais manifestações de doenças ocorridas entre os trabalhadores docentes em IES privadas possuem relação com a precarização do trabalho dos mesmos? e b) que fatores relacionados ao exercício do magistério podem estar associados ao desenvolvimento de determinadas doenças nos professores? Essas questões configuraram a tese aqui defendida: o trabalho docente, em razão de sua precarização, tem uma relação bem íntima com o processo de adoecimento dos professores. Para a efetivação do estudo realizou-se uma pesquisa empírica junto a docentes de uma instituição de ensino superior da rede privada, localizada no município de Belém, mediante o emprego de entrevistas semiestruturadas cujos objetivos perseguidos eram: a) identificar as principais manifestações de doenças ocorridas entre os trabalhadores docentes em IES privadas e b) analisar se as doenças que acometem os docentes de IES privadas têm relação com a precarização do trabalho dos mesmos. De um modo geral, os dados revelaram que há, realmente, uma forte relação entre o tipo de exercício laboral dos professores e o desenvolvimento de um latente processo de adoecimento. Algo percebido durante a identificação de diversas manifestações de doenças verificadas entre os trabalhadores docentes. No que tange as doenças físicas, destaca-se como a principal manifestada pelos docentes problemas relativos à corda vocal, algo que parece ser comum ao grupo de profissionais que utilizam com muita frequência, sem descanso e de forma inadequada, a voz. No que concerne especificamente às doenças mentais, encontrou-se forte indícios da presença de estresse e também da síndrome de burnout, fatores que tornam o trabalho docente algo embrutecedor e incompatível com a ativação de uma vida saudável e plena. Concluindo, entende-se então que, de um modo geral, os dados indicam pistas e sinais de que há uma relação muito próxima entra a precarização do trabalho e o desenvolvimento de processos de adoecimento entre os docentes envolvidos na pesquisa empírica.
