This essay presents critical considerations about the process of Evaluation of Individual Performance (EIP) to which the servers of the health sector of the state of Minas Gerais are currently subject, drawing attention to the character of high complexity of this sector and recommending the adoption of more comprehensive methodologies, like the Multidisciplinary Analysis of Work Situations (MAWS), proposed by Yves Schwartz. This text results from our experience in the regency of courses in the area of Human Resources for healthcare workers, and we would like to emphasize that this is not a scientific article that presents data from conclusive empirical research, but a call for reflection and dialogue on the risks of crystallization of an excessively functionalist view of the procedures for managing people in the public health sector.
