This article presents the results of a survey which main objective was to conduct a reflective study on teachers' voluntary work at a High Education Institution and its internal regulations. It is a qualitative research developed according to critical analysis. Questionnaires were applied to volunteer teachers and a documentary survey was carried out. The relevance of the study lies on the fact of revealing the status of volunteer teaching in a public university, whose conclusions are not consensual, as well as performing an evaluation of the current legislation, confirming the hypothesis that the Federal Institution of Higher Education surveyed lacks an internal policy or specific programs regarding volunteer teaching. The conclusions also refer to the issue of flexibility and precariousness of teaching.
