0240/2021 - Trabalho docente, desigualdades de gênero e saúde em universidade pública Professors’work, gender, inequalities and health at the public university
O objetivo principal do presente estudo foi problematizar aspectos do trabalho docente do ensino superior em relação a gênero, políticas de avaliação e saúde. Para tal, realizou-se uma pesquisa social de caráter qualitativo sob a vertente dos estudos participativos e do enfoque do feminismo materialista. Quanto aos procedimentos de pesquisa, adotou-se duas técnicas de investigação, oficinas em saúde do trabalhador e cadernetas de saúde e trabalho. A análise do material foi efetuada por meio da análise de conteúdo, na modalidade temática, sendo identificados quatro temas principais: conflitos entre trabalho docente e trabalho doméstico; trabalho docente, maternidade e culpa; políticas de avaliação do trabalho docente e relações de gênero; divisão sexual do trabalho e docência. Percebeu-se o quanto as demandas da esfera produtiva têm extrapolado o tempo da jornada de trabalho para a esfera reprodutiva e a vida privada das professoras, comprometendo a luta e a defesa pela saúde que podem levar a processos de sofrimento e adoecimento. O tema da divisão sexual do trabalho em universidades públicas desponta como importante questão que evidencia sobrecarga de trabalho e mal estar psíquico. Concluiu-se pela imperativa necessidade de investimentos em políticas públicas que garantam igualdade de gênero no trabalho do ensino superior.
Palavras-chave:

Abstract:
The main aim of this study was to problematize aspects of work of professors in relation to gender, assessment policies and health. To this end, a qualitative social research was conducted under a strand of participatory studies and materialistic feminism. As for the research procedures, it adopted two investigation techniques, workers\' health workshops and health and work booklets. An analysis of the material was carried out through content analysis, in the thematic mode, using four main themes: conflicts between professors’ work and domestic work; professors’ work, motherhood and guilt; policies for assessment of professors’work and gender relations; sexual division of labor and teaching. It was realized how much the demands of the productive sphere have gone beyond the time of the workday to the reproductive sphere and the private life of professors, compromising the struggle and the defense for health that can reach to suffering and illness processes. The theme of the sexual division of labor in public universities appears as an important issue that highlights work overload and psychic malaise, especially at a time when teaching work is becoming increasingly competitive. It concludes that there is an imperative need for investments in public policies that guarantee the gender equality in higher teaching work.
