Resumo
This dissertation aims to analyze sociologically labor relations in social work in
the metropolitan area of Goiânia, revealing how the social workers are affected and
experience the changes taking place in the universe of work and its implications for the
category. Still, there are as specific objectives: to outline the socioeconomic profile of
social workers; to analyze the process of construction of social identities of these
professionals; and to identify how ownership of emotional labor and gender
constructions affect the profession. The methodology has qualitative emphasis. A semistructured
interview with social workers was the main procedure for the construction of
qualitative data, with technical elements of narrative interviews. The quantitative data
were used as sources of secondary data bases, as Census, PNAD and RAIS sources.
The results indicate a visible process of casualization of working conditions in
social service, particularly with respect to the type of job contract (temporary contracts,
commissioned position, volunteer work), diferent types of work journey arrangements,
widely disparate wages, unstable links and absence of social rights (holidays, maternity
leave, etc). Even workers with effective statutory relationship are affected by the
dichotomy of contracts, reduction of competitions for public servants and scarce
investment in physical, material and human conditions of work.
The results also indicate that the Social Work persists as female niche, which has
a historical and social devaluation, exposed mainly in discriminatory manifestations
related to career choice of Social Work. Social workers manage their gender relations in
the permanence of housework reconciled to professional work, setting up a gender
identity. Finally, the research exposes that emotional labor is done intermittently in this
profession and that emotions are administered in depth level, contributing to the
emotional labor be constituted as part of the professional identity.
