Abstract

Abstract The study aimed to understand the meanings attributed to Worker’s Health (WH) by health professionals of the Expanded Core for Family Health and Primary Care (Nasf-AB in the Portuguese acronym), as well as its consequences in the production of care in PHC. Interviews with 13 professionals from different areas were analyzed based on Discourse Analysis. Meanings of work as a generator of diseases and those related to the Social Determinants of Health (SDH) emerged. Through the actions of Nasf-AB on work/worker, it was possible to see how this team works as a filter of the tensions produced by users, family health teams and management. The discourse of work as a producer of diseases is still predominant; however, the perception of work as SDH produces openings for these professionals to act in the expanded clinic as reference technicians in WH.
