Summary

Introduction

In Brazil, over the last decades, the area of human resources in health (HRH) stands out as a field for coping with system problems. In 2003, in the restructuring of the Ministry of Health (MS), the Secretariat of Labor Management and Health Education (SGTES) was created as the main federal instrument to mobilize management actions in the field of work and training, aiming to valorize and qualify the workers of the area[1]. Its main purpose is to equalize the existing problems in the area and define policies, articulating, on the one hand, actions linked to the Ministry of Education and Labor, the Legislative and Civil Society and, on the other, the demands of the federative management bodies of the system. The construction of the SGTES2 positive agenda is an important milestone for the HRH area, insofar as it incorporates themes accumulated and discussed in previous decades in health conferences and related in the Principles and Guidelines for Basic Operational Norms of Human Resources for SUS (NOB-HR), namely: guidelines for the elaboration of health care positions, careers and wages (PCCS); National Program for the Desprecarization of Labor in the SUS; Permanent Negotiation Tables of SUS (MNP-SUS); Qualification of labor and education management in SUS, among others
