Abstract

RAGNINI, Elaine Cristina Schmitt  and  DARRIBA, Vinicius Anciães. The worker's health field under the rift of malaise as the ethical ground. Estud. pesqui. psicol. [online]. 2017, vol.17, n.2, pp. 707-724. ISSN 1808-4281.

This article analyzes, from the perspective of psychoanalytic clinic, which relies on malaise notion, some elements of health practices developed in the field that turns to the relationship between health and work. Following the constitution of knowledge and practices that seek to circumscribe this relationship, it notes the exclusion of the subject in it meaning associated with the Freudian unconscious. Finally, it is stated that the field of Worker's Health, in its counter-hegemonic perspective, critical of the mode of production in capitalism, turns out to reiterate an order of things associated with the logic of capital when, in the search for a causal link between illness and work, it confirms the epidemic status of depression in terms of biological psychiatry.

Keywords : worker; health; malaise; subject; unconscious.
