The present research, guided by the Social-historical Psychology developed by the Núcleo de Estudos Psicossociais da Dialética Exclusão/Inclusão (NEXIN Nucleus of Psychosocial Studies of the Exclusion/Inclusion Dialetics), aimed to analyze the interlacement among work, exclusion/inclusion and health through a case study with young workers from the garment industry in a city in the interior of São Paulo state. In order to do so, the objective conditions of work to which youths are submitted were mapped and a profile of common diseases of the city s working young population was drawn and, focusing the singularity, the study aimed at understanding the subjects history of the process health/disease, as well as their sufferings, dreams, desires, conception of themselves, social insertion and the sense that work and health acquire to them. Health is understood as potency to action, in an enlarged conception which incorporates the ethical and affective dimensions. In order to guide such conception, the study was based on Espinosa s reflections on happiness, joy and power and on Vygotsky s reflections about the adolescent s health. Health is an indicative of the quality of social insertion made possible by work, which means that the health/disease process is a concrete expression on the human body of the exclusion/inclusion process in which the individual is inserted. Health becomes an indicator of the ethical-political quality of the society and not only of the individuals' health condition. The youth s job became today a world-wide social subject, particularly due to the global reduction of workstations, which hinders the youths insertion in the work world. This situation constitutes a present social problem and worries population and governments everywhere, since it is a matter that can commit not only the future of individuals, but the future of societies. Therefore, forms of guaranteeing opportunities of access for youths to work are looked for. In this scenery, it was considered relevant to know the youths reality for those who are already inserted in the job market, relating this experience to the question of health and formation for their future, considering the importance of that phase of human development, in which the individual forms his conceptions about the world, about the society, about the people and about himself. The analysis of the data demonstrated that work, in a tayloristic system, is configured as a perverse inclusion, for when the youth needs conditions for the opening of horizons, of new conquests, to exercise his creativity and so live and apprehend the world, he has this transition process blocked by several social institutions, among which work and the connections it establishes with other institutions stand out
