Abstract
The field of Social Assistance has admitted psychologists who work in interdisciplinary teams and face complex problems. The hiring of psychologists has been carried out at the municipal level, outsourced and temporary. Thus, having as a theoretical perspective the Psychodynamics of work, this study aimed to identify the working conditions of temporary psychologists who worked in a CREAS, as well as their impact, in a municipality of Rio Grande do Sul. It is a qualitative research of transversal and exploratory character, in which six psychologists who worked on a CREAS, temporarily, participated between the years of 2010 and 2015. To compose the sample, the procedure called snowball was used. Participants answered a semi-structured individual interview, which was analyzed through Content Analysis. Among the results, it was possible to perceive that the outsourced and temporary work, for the psychologists interviewed, was an experience of a lot of investment, wear and tear, which generated some frustrations and illness, due to the precarious work conditions, lack of valorization and investment of the Management and insecurity regarding the renewal of the contract. Reflections on the implementation of this modality of hiring psychologists are being carried out.
