This study aimed to understand the psychic repercussions linked to the work of outsourced workers who work in a public University in Bahia in the position of receptionists. We specifically sought to understand socio-professional relationships, the conditions and work organization, the performance of pleasure and suffering experienced by these workers and know the strategies used to mediate work-related suffering. The study adopted a theoretical basis of Work Psychodynamics. Semi-structured interviews were conducted and the data were treated qualitatively through the Analysis of the Core of Sense (ANS). The reports of the research participants showed that inequalities in relation to labor rights; lower remuneration, shorter working time in the organization, longer working hours and inadequate working conditions give rise to a feeling of inferiority in relation to the others workers. On the other hand, the experience of precariousness of work drives workers to mobilize defensive strategies to deal with suffering and maintain psychological balance. Reports of pleasant coexistence with peers and managers show a feeling of belonging and gratitude for the institution. In the investigated context, the conclusion was that outsourcing is linked to the experience of precariousness of work.
