Resumo: The present study aimed to identify the relationship between work and mental health of temporary lecturers, taking into consideration the work conditions and organization at universities. The research had a qualitative approach being developed with 11 professors, who were working in two public universities. Data was collected through a semi-structured interview. After analyzing the interviews, it was found that the factors which most contributed to professors illness and suffering were related to the organization of work, and to the distribution of workload between staff and the temporary lecturers as well as to the low remuneration and the lack of autonomy in deciding matters regarding the execution of their activities. Due to low remuneration, many temporary lecturers end up taking up activities in other institutions (as a professor or not) to supplement personal and / or family income. This double (or triple) workload ends up impacting the health conditions of these workers, making them more prone to physical and mental illness. However, it was noticed that the fact of being in the classroom generates a sense of accomplishment in the temporary lecturers, being the main source of pleasure at work.

La investigación, de abordaje cualitativa, fue realizada con 11 profesores que actúan temporariamente en dos universidades públicas. Los datos fueron obtenidos por medio de una encuesta semiestructurada. Tras el análisis de las encuestas, constatamos que los factores que más causan enfermedad en eses profesores temporarios se relacionan con la organización del trabajo, y dicen respecto a la distribución de la carga horaria de trabajo entre efectivos y temporarios, la baja remuneración y la falta de autonomía para decidir cuestiones de la ejecución de sus actividades. En razón de los bajos sueldos, muchos profesores temporarios acaban asumiendo actividades en otras instituciones (como profesores o no) para complementar el sueldo personal y/o familiar. Esa dupla (o tripla) jornada de trabajo afecta las condiciones de salud de eses trabajadores, dejándolos más propensos a enfermedades físicas y mentales. Sin embargo, percibimos que la actividad docente resulta en un sentimiento de realización en los profesores, y esta es la principal fuente de satisfacción en el trabajo.La présente étude avait pour but identifier la relation entre le travail et la santé mentale des professeurs universitaires adjoints, compte tenu de les conditions et l'organisation de ce genre de travail dans le context universitaire.Cette recherche, avec une approche qualitative, a été menée avec 11 professeurs qui agissent comme des adjoints dans deux universités publique.Les données ont été recueillies via d’entretiens semi-directives.Après l'analyse de les entretiens, il-a-été constaté que les facteurs qui causent le plus de souffrances et contribuent à la maladie des professeurs adjoints sont liés à l’organisation du travail et à la répartition de la charge de travail entre les personnels et les adjoints,et aussi en raison de la faible rémunération et le manque d'autonomie pour décider des questions relatives à la performance de leurs activités.À cause de la faible rémunération, des nombreux professeurs adjoints finissent par entreprendre des activités dans d'autres institutions(en tant qui sont professeurs ou non)pour compléter les revenus personnels et/ou familiaux.Cette double (ou triple) charge de travail finit par avoir un impact sur l'état de santé de ces travailleurs, les rendant plus vulnérables aux maladies physiques et mentales. Cependant, il a été remarqué que le fait d'être en classe suscite un sentiment de_réussite_chez_les_professeurs_adjoints,qui_est_la_principale_source_de_plaisir_au_travail.A presente pesquisa teve como objetivo identificar a relação entre trabalho e a saúde mental dos docentes universitários substitutos, levando em consideração as condições e a organização do trabalho presente no contexto universitário. A pesquisa, de abordagem qualitativa foi realizada com 11 professores que atuam como substitutos em duas universidades públicas. A coleta de dados se deu por meio de uma entrevista semiestruturada. Após a análise das entrevistas, constatou- se que os fatores que mais causam sofrimento e contribuem para o adoecimento dos professores substitutos, se relacionam com a organização do trabalho, e dizem respeito a distribuição de carga horária de trabalho entre efetivos e substitutos, a baixa remuneração e a falta de autonomia para decidirem questões da execução do serviço. Em decorrência da baixa remuneração, muitos professores substitutos acabam assumindo atividades em outras instituições (como docente ou não) para complementar a renda pessoal e/ou familiar. Essa dupla (ou tripla) jornada de trabalho acaba repercutindo nas condições de saúde desses trabalhadores, deixando-os mais propensos ao adoecimento físico e mental. Porém, percebeu-se que o fato de estarem em sala de aula, gera um sentimento de realização nos docentes, sendo a principalmente fonte de prazer no trabalho.Universidade Federal do Tocantins - UFT2019-12-23info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://sistemas.uft.edu.br/periodicos/index.php/encena/article/view/740610.20873/2526-1487V4N2P430Trabalho (En)Cena; Vol. 4 No. 2 (2019): Dossiê Saúde Mental nas IES; 430-450Trabalho (En)Cena; Vol. 4 Núm. 2 (2019): Dossiê Saúde Mental nas IES; 430-450Trabalho (En)Cena; Vol. 4 No. 2 (2019): Dossiê Saúde Mental nas IES; 430-450Trabalho (En)Cena; v. 4 n. 2 (2019): Dossiê Saúde Mental nas IES; 430-4502526-148710.20873/2526-1487V4N2reponame:Trabalho (En)Cenainstname:Universidade Federal do Tocantins (UFT)instacron:UFTporhttps://sistemas.uft.edu.br/periodicos/index.php/encena/article/view/7406/16186Copyright (c) 2019 Eduardo Breno Nascimento Bezerra, Paula Camelo Tibães, Carina Barata Cavalcanti, Bruno Medeirosinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBezerra, Eduardo Breno NascimentoTibães, Paula CameloCavalcanti, Carina BarataMedeiros, Bruno2020-02-13T18:17:25Zoai:ojs.revista.uft.edu.br:article/7406Revistahttps://sistemas.uft.edu.br/periodicos/index.php/encena/oai2526-14872526-1487opendoar:2020-02-13T18:17:25Trabalho (En)Cena - Universidade Federal do Tocantins (UFT)false
