NEOLIBERAL MANAGEMENT´S IMPACTS ON THE WORK ORGANIZATION: the apprehension of subjective and the psychic suffering among bank workers
Departing from the theme of psychological distress of bank workers, this research tends to identify the origin and the nature of such feelings, taking as its central axis the neoliberal ideology’s influence both on the work organization and on the workers’ subjectivity. This is a case study of formal workers, with a high educational level, employed in a strategic directorship of a Brazilian mixed economy bank. The theoretical references adopted from authors such as Dardot and Laval, Antunes, Linhart, Gaulejac and Pages et al, allow us to understand the neoliberalism and the work management practices outlined under this model. The statements from the 12 interviews carried out, allow to recognize feelings such as tiredness, insecurity and frustration, in an environment where the organization of production has taylorist characteristics, followed by a labor management model and guided by the subjectivity and toylorist techniques. Characteristics of the neoliberal paradigm and its types of organizing work are analyzed and identified in the directorship studied and in the subjectivity of its employees, in order to relate them to the suffering they experience.
