To describe the aspects related to the sociopolitical participation of the nursing team and nursing technicians. This is descriptive research, with a cross-sectional design; the scenario was the Santa Casa de Misericórdia Hospital of Vitória / ES. We included nurses and nursing technicians and excluded nurses and nursing technicians who were on medical leave during the period of data collection. Data analysis was performed through the statistical program SPSS 17. 282 nursing professionals participated in the study. There was a prevalence of females (82.3%), medium-level positions (75.5%), followed by the category of nursing assistants (24.5%). In relation to class struggles, it is noticed a greater interest of the nurses, with participations of the masculine class in greater prevalence, although they are the minority in the team. There are still professionals who do not know or participate in any representation entity, even though the association with the Regional Nursing Council (COREN) is mandatory for nursing practice. The Brazilian nursing political organization is permeated by advances and setbacks. Although there is an expressive number of interest in politics, greater involvement of the category is required.
