Abstract
This paper analyzes how work precariousness is expressed in the daily life of a Prison Primary Care Team in the Brazilian South. This qualitative, exploratory research applied the focus group technique and relied on the participation of ten health professionals. The results evidenced a substandard occupational relationship, objectified by the workforce’s outsourcing, the poor proper management of work processes, and little provision for specific professional qualifications and actions consistent with the occupational reality.
