Abstract

BARROS, Juliana de Oliveira et al. Intersectoriality in health and work in the current brazilian context: the utopia of reality?. Interface (Botucatu) [online]. 2020, vol.24, e190303.  Epub Dec 09, 2019. ISSN 1414-3283.  http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/interface.190303.

The social-economic-political scenario since 2015 presents new challenges and characterizations for the worker’s comprehensive health care. The aim was to give visibility to the perspective of public policies managers and formulators directed to the worker regarding intersectoriality in the transition period in the last three Brazilian governments. To this end, we interviewed some people from different sectors (Health, Labor, Social Welfare, and Justice) linked to the workers’ health. There was a consensus concerning the difficulties faced in implementing intersectoral practice. Overall, this led to the weakening of building a systemic view of the field and of how a sector, rather than completing actions of another one, is part of a single system that aims to ensure the worker’s health. This is an issue of the field vulnerability that toughened the construction of collective strategies of resistance to labor and social welfare reforms.
