FERRARI, Liliana Edith. Decent employment and subjectivity in the workplace: notes for an agenda of labor policies in citizenship terms. Orientac. soc. [online]. 2009, vol.9, pp.00-00. ISSN 1851-8893.

Taking back the contemporary problems of work in terms of their actors, the aspects in which labor psychology can produce contributions and reflections are examined. The problem of diagnosis as well as that of understanding and elucidation of the limits and scope that employment policies can contain as proposals of palliative designs for processes not strictly linked to the psycho-social aspects of work, is assessed from the standpoint of decent employment I analyze the contrast between the importance, in theoretical-research terms, of the employment model and its paradoxical extinction in terms of concrete work, which places unemployment and under-employment as a supplementary function of an absent normality. On the other hand, I present the link between work and citizenship, and the relation between work and subjectivity, retaken to set out the problem of the interdependences that can be considered unidirectionally, and therefore, become sources of impossibility or make vulnerable citizen behaviors and identitarian positioning. Finally, I expose the results obtained from a qualitative research, analysis by categories remarks the expectations associated to work, based on forms of experience and age groups.
