SUMMARY:

This dissertation analyzes the relationships and working conditions of the social worker's professional practice in the Emergency Care Unit (UPA) of Parnamirim/ RN, during the pandemic period, identifying the consequences of precarious work, social policies and offensive of capital associated with the Covid-19 health crisis that reflects on daily professional life. The research was carried out under the guidance of historical-dialectical materialism, whose methodological path started from a bibliographical research, based on a literature review; through documentary research, by consulting legislation, the guidelines of the CFESS-CRESS set and institutional documents; and in the field, when applying a questionnaire with open and closed questions to the institution's social workers, considering the appropriation of qualitative and quantitative research. The study revealed that the precariousness of work and social policies, especially health policy linked to the pandemic situation, affected the objective and subjective conditions of the working class as a whole, and, consequently, of social workers, since they also do part of the working class. In the conclusive approaches, it was observed that professional limits and possibilities are placed in the daily professional life of social workers who work at the UPA of Parnamirim/RN, given the lack of physical structure consistent with regulations and reality. of the municipality that affects professional work; in the face of the veiled privatization underway with the outsourcing process at the institution, which has repercussions on working relationships and conditions and has implications for collective work. In addition to the subsidiary character that the profession carries in the socio-technical division of labor, which comes from the historical process, and which was reinforced in the pandemic by the discourse of the “exceptional character” of actions in the face of public calamity, in the face of acting under crossfire, as pointed out the research data. On the other hand, it was relevant that resistance and collective confrontations towards the professional ethical-political project can contribute to minimizing and imposing barriers to impasses for a critical-reflective professional exercise, towards the quality of services provided to the population. In this sense, the defense of ethical and technical conditions, mediated by professional competencies and attributions, stands as a professional compass, collectively articulated with the category, with the representative bodies and the defense of social rights, which are in dispute on a daily basis and are affected by socio-historical, political and economic conditions, added to the social and class struggle in defense of a new sociability
