Psychodynamics of work has assumed an important role in Brazilian's studies concerning health/mental illness of workers. Therefore, this study has the objective of doing a systematic review of articles, theses and national dissertations which used the theory and/or the psychodynamics of work in the last few years (2007 to 2013). To collect materials the descriptor work psychodynamics was used in the Virtual Library in Health Psychology (BVS-Psi), in the database of Tests and Dissertations of Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES) and the Digital Brazilian Library of Theses and Dissertations. The result showed that the majority of studies are based in qualitative methods, investigating experiences of pleasure and pain of workers, and the most studied professional category is the workers from the health area. The analysis of the main results revealed that the Brazilian researches which employ the Work Psychodynamics have a strong descriptive characteristic, pointing to the necessity of more studies with focus on intervention and discussion of actions promoting worker's health.
