At the present time, there is an increasingly demanding social situation in the world of work, as well as its constant search for competent professionals with varied skills. These changes reflect directly on the teaching work, reinforcing the need to understand the Meaning of this profession. Thus, this study aims to identify and analyze the meanings of the work attributed by professors of the Administration area of an IFES (Federal Institution of Higher Education) of Minas Gerais, headquartered in the region of Campo das Vertentes. In order to operationalize this investigation, a qualitative-descriptive case study was carried out, and data were collected through in-depth interviews. The results were analyzed using the content analysis technique. In this analysis, it was verified that the meanings attributed by the teachers to the teaching work are represented by positive and negative dimensions of the work context. On the positive side, one has social prestige, recognition, personal and professional fulfillment and the pleasure in performing the work that he likes. On the other hand, there is the overload of tasks, the need to comply with indicators, the difficulties of teamwork and the excess of responsibilities. However, the work is considered significant by the teachers, constituting as part of the identity of each one of them.
