PROFESSORAS NA PANDEMIA: UMA REVISÃO BIBLIOGRÁFICA ACERCA DA INCIDÊNCIA DE CASOS DE BURNOUT NO CONTEXTO PANDÊMICO

Abstract

During the pandemic, teachers faced a series of issues that affected both their professional and personal lives, taking into account aspects such as the accumulation of work, whether paid or care work. The present study aimed to analyze the situation of women teachers during the pandemic and relate it to the occurrences of Burnout Syndrome, in addition to exposing possible relationships established between the overload of women during the pandemic period, especially women teachers, which resulted in psychological illness. The type of work developed is a bibliographical research, carried out based on a literature review. Initially, the main categories of work were conceptualized based on primary and secondary sources, and later the results of searches in databases were presented, in which productions were raised, which could be scientific articles, books or book chapters, within a period of 4 years, between 2020 and 2024. Finally, a systematic analysis of the material obtained was carried out. From the discussions held, it was possible to understand that the situation that women faced during the pandemic was a scenario of illness, specifically when transposing this harsh female reality into the teaching context, as it is a group that constantly deals with devaluation, the imposition of work, demands for positive results, all of this combined with the demands of care work that are compulsorily assigned to women.
