Resumo: This paper describes the restructuring of the conditions and procedures for the current work of professors in higher education, which introduces management logic to teaching. It shows how this new logic causes professors to fall physically and mentally ill. For this purpose, it analyzes the recent transformations in the labor world and how they directly affect the University Reform undertaken by the presidential terms of the Workers’ Party. The service currently offered in Brazilian public universities (2016) was investigated, and professors from various courses and universities (2015-2016) were interviewed about the transformations that have occurred in their work. The result shows that intensification and deterioration of work are currently present throughout the academic work and that teachers are aware that their work, nowadays, has become a source of physical and mental diseases. However, they refuse to seek for help in order not to be stigmatized because they did not tolerate the new ways of teaching work in universities.

Mostra como esta nova lógica adoece o professor física e mentalmente. Para tanto, analisa as últimas transformações no mundo do trabalho e como estas influenciaram diretamente a Reforma Universitária empreendida pelos governos do Partido dos Trabalhadores. Investiga também o atendimento existente nas universidades públicas brasileiras (2016), bem como entrevista docentes de vários cursos e universidades (2015-2016) a respeito das transformações ocorridas no seu labor. O resultado demonstra que a intensificação e precarização estão presentes em todo o trabalho acadêmico atualmente e que os professores têm consciência de que seu trabalho, hoje, passou a ser a fonte de agravos à saúde física e mental. Entretanto, recusam-se a procurar auxílio, para não serem estigmatizados por não suportarem as novas formas do trabalho docente nas universidades.Revista KatálysisRevista KatálysisRevista Katálysis2017-06-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionRevisão de Literatura e Pesquisa Empíricaapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/katalysis/article/view/1982-02592017v20n2p20710.1590/1982-02592017v20n2p207Revista Katálysis; Vol. 20 No. 2 (2017): Pós-graduação e Serviço Social; 207-215Revista Katálysis; Vol. 20 Núm. 2 (2017): Pós-graduação e Serviço Social; 207-215Revista Katálysis; v. 20 n. 2 (2017): Pós-graduação e Serviço Social; 207-2151982-02591414-4980reponame:Revista Katálysis (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/katalysis/article/view/1982-02592017v20n2p207/34401Copyright (c) 2020 Janete Luzia Leiteinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessLeite, Janete Luzia2017-10-09T18:30:37Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/47688Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/katalysis/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/katalysis/oairevistakatalysis@gmail.com || kataly@cse.ufsc.br || revistakatalysis@hotmail.com1982-02591414-4980opendoar:2017-10-09T18:30:37Revista Katálysis (Online) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false
