BERNARDO, Marcia Hespanhol; NOGUEIRA, Francisco Ronald Capoulade  e  BULL, Sandra. Work and mental health: implications of objective and subjective precarization. Arq. bras. psicol. [online]. 2011, vol.63, n.spe, pp.83-93. ISSN 1809-5267.

Based on the results of two researches in social psychology, this article aims to discuss the psychological impact of work in two different contexts. In the first one - of auto industry workers - it was observed a psychic suffering related to the contradiction between discourse and practice of Companies. The conditions experienced by workers, made possible for the fear of unemployment, provide a kind of 'subjective precarization'. In the second context roamers - people who are on the street surviving from informal work - were focused. It was observed that in spite of living an 'objective precariousness' they declare themselves as workers and have alcohol addiction as the main expression of their psychic suffering. It has been concluded that both groups are part of the same phenomenon, the contemporary social precarization, which affects the first group by their submission to extreme work conditions and the second one for the impossibility to make any work, which is constitutive of human subjectivity.
