Teachers of K-12 education have great challenges in order to gain the valuation of teaching profession in the face of national career policies and education financing. The career is investigated as an indicator of the working conditions of the teachers of the educational public system of Rio de Janeiro, who held a strike in 2013 demanding for better conditions for their career. The proposal in this article is to compare two career plans: one current at the time of the strike and other which was approved during the mobilization. It was analyzed the following elements: admission criteria, working hours, career movement and compensation components. In the comparative analysis, it can be seen that the admission to the career was maintained by public tender; there were changes that fostered the creation of a 40-hour workweek; and there was an expansion of the career progression through the academic pathway. These were restricted to budgetary criteria, so that these elements are not established as teachers' rights.
