Abstract

The spread of productivism has gained more and more space in public higher education, transforming the work of teachers and the function of the academy. The organization starts to treat everything and everyone as mere merchandise, as well as the teaching activity. Based on the requirements by capitalism, workers came to be seen as human capital, as its ability to innovate, its attentive look at customers and its flexibility in activities have become raw material for those who employ them. With the increase of demands, charges and pressure, suffering recurs from the organization and affects workers directly, both their physical and mental health. The organization develops in each worker the desire to stand out, thus interfering in relations within the work space, having as one of its consequences the emergence of the pathology of violence entitled moral harassment. The psychodynamics of work (PDT) comes to establish and discuss the suffering/pleasure resulting from the work. Therefore, the objective of this research is based on tracing the state of the art by through a systematic review of studies already published regarding moral harassment of professors in the university environment, to understand the relationship between the organization and of work with the emergence of moral harassment and what are the effects of this type of violence in the life and health of teachers. When analyzing the studies already published regarding the theme, it was found that for teachers who have been victims or are still victims of moral harassment, work overload is the characteristic that most stands out from the organization and the most present consequences in the relationship illness with the other, there are psychopathological aspects such as stress, fear and anxiety. In addition to the above, the studies point to the need to discussion of the theme in the workplace. As an intervention proposal, it is understood that there is a need for institutions to discuss more about this violence, as well how they should invest in campaigns and lectures so that workers/teachers manage to face this violence so that it ceases to be naturalized.
