This is a study whose object was the sociodemographic and occupational characterization of the newly-formed nurses from the Faculty of Nursing of the State University of Rio de Janeiro (ENF/UERJ). Objectives: (1) To characterize the newly-formed from the undergraduate nursing course of NFE/UERJ with regard to sociodemographic and occupational situations and (2) analyze the results about sociodemographic and occupational characterization of the newly-formed nurses of nursing of NFE/UERJ. Method: it is a quantitative, cross-sectional and observational research, whose project was approved by the Research Ethics Committee, under the nº 360 021. Data collection took place from December 2013 to May 2014, and it was performed with newly-formed nurses from graduate classes between the first half of 2000 and the second half of 2010. In order to collect data, we made use of on-site and on-line strategies, through a self-administered questionnaire. After applying the questionnaire, in printed format or by means of mailing to the newly-formed nurses emails, we obtained 147 questionnaires answered. In order to analyze data, we applied the Fisher s exact test by considering the significant p value ≤ 0,05. The population was divided into two groups (G1 and G2) by taking as a basis the balanced division of the 22 surveyed classes (11 classes in G1 and 11 in G2). Results: Population with predominance of female gender (88,4%), average age of 32 years (± 1), most living in the State of Rio de Janeiro (96,6%), with family income ≥ 3 minimum wages (96,6%) and with up to three dependents on income (81%). Most had more than one employment (53,7%) and fulfilled a weekly workload longer than 30 hours (80,3%). There was no quantitative difference between the groups with regard to daytime and nighttime work shifts. As for differences between G1 and G2, we found a significant increase of newly-formed nurses with public-sector (under CLT) and non-statutory employment links (p = 0,0244) in G2; reduction of the wage of the nurses who composed the G2 (p = 0,0015); and increased activity in the hospital area of the newly-formed nurses inserted into G2 (p = 0.0018) compared to public health, research and teaching. Conclusion: The hospital area is still the large employer of nurses, although there is a government policy to boost the nursing field in Primary Care. The effects of neoliberalism and the consequent precarization of working conditions have negatively impacted on the study participants. This is because there was an increase of unconventional links between groups in the course of time. Despite the multiplicity of links, the income as a nurse, among the groups of newly-formed was reduced. Furthermore, we found a significant absenteeism in both groups (24%), especially due to illness. This fact becomes worrisome when one considers that the investigated newly-formed subjects were young, in full production phase and with expectation of little or no morbidity.
