This essay is focused on studying the Marxian theory and its influence on the work of social care professionals. The goal is to understand how these professionals mediate Marxist theory in their professional practice in order to contribute to the materialization of the professional project. Therefore, it has been considered the socio-historical aspects of the profession, as well as the actual working conditions of social care professionals. The chapters of theoretical elaboration seek to enlighten the Marxian theory on the method of investigation and exposure, followed by the critical-dialectical method and dialectical categories. It has also been described the history of Social Service since its foundation in Brazil until its approach to Marxist theory starting from the Reconceptualization Movement, which culminated in the current ethical- political professional project. In order to achieve our purpose, the work of social care professionals has been investigated from its intentionality, purpose and materialization. The method of study that has guided this research is the critical-dialectical approach with mixed focus. For data collection it has been used - in a first step - questionnaires, followed by interviews to go deeper. The participants of the study were FASC (Foundation for Social Welfare and Citizenship) social care professionals in the city of Porto Alegre. The main results show that most of the subjects admitted using the Marxist framework for the development of their work. The apprehension of this referential has been clarified through mediation with categories and concepts, such as: social issue, totality, contradiction, historicity, participation, social change, among others. The professional education has also shown to be significantly relevant in justifying the use of the Marxist method in professional work
