SUMMARY:

The field of Workers' Health (OSH) appeared in 1970 in Brazil and one of its premises is the "no delegation", which indicates a method to intervene in the health-work process, in which workers should not delegate health care to either the employer or the State, being fundamental elements to obtain effective achievements to eliminate harmful aspects of the health-work process. The aim of this thesis is to analyse the current obstacles to the realisation of the protagonism of the working class with regard to their care. As specific objectives, we propose: (1) to analyse, in the face of the transformations of work, what it implies to speak of protagonism of the workers today; (2) to study the experience of the metal workers in the ABC region in the decade of 1970 and 1980, identifying the formulations of the workers, via union, regarding the health agenda; and, finally, (3) to carry out a debate on the protagonism of the workers regarding the process of health-disease at work. To this end, we conducted (1) a theoretical study articulating Marx's categories with the OSH field and (2) confronting this analysis empirically with the particular case of the category metal workers in the ABC region, through (a) documental analysis of resolutions of the union's congresses and press on the worker's health agenda; (b) interviews with workers seeking union support in the face of a situation of illness/occupational accident. We point out the union's orientation towards the rank and file as a factor that made health appear as a daily expression of the capital-labour contradictions. This process not only served to intervene in the labour processes, but also showed the health agenda as a form of mobilisation, linking the struggle for higher wages with the struggle for working conditions.
