Neste artigo, resultante de uma comunicação proferida nas III Jornadas de Ciências Sociais e Humanas em Saúde, abordam-se as dinâmicas presentes nas relações profissionais e as tendências dos processos de profissionalização que ocorrem no campo
da saúde. O trabalho de investigação empírica, realizado no quadro de um estudo de caso sobre os técnicos de cardiopneumologia e o desenvolvimento da reflexão sobre o tema, constituem o ponto de partida da análise sobre o tema que toma como referência o conjunto dos grupos socioprofissionais deste setor. Após enquadrar os contextos de transformação
social que têm ocorrido desde as últimas décadas do século XX e a forma como
incidiram no campo da saúde, bem como na recomposição dos respetivos grupos socioprofissionais, salientam-se cinco tendências relativas aos processos de profissionalização observadas neste setor, relacionadas com as relações de poder e dominação profissional; os efeitos da delegação de tarefas e competências ao nível da transferência de legitimidade entre os grupos socioprofissionais; o grau de autonomia; a variabilidade das situações
quotidianas ocorridas em diferentes contextos de trabalho que se traduz numa disparidade de tendências muitas vezes contraditórias e paradoxais entre si; o efeito das alterações recentes nos cenários de inserção profissional, num contexto de crescente precariedade e desregulação do mercado de trabalho.
This article, based on a presentation delivered at the 3rd Conference on Social Sciences and Humanities in Health, explores the dynamics taking place in professional relations, and the trends in professionalisation processes unfolding in healthcare. The empirical research carried out within the context of a case study on cardiopneumology technicians, as well as subsequent reflection on the subject, are the analytical starting point on the theme, taking as reference the set of socio-professional groups in healthcare. After framing the contexts of social change that have occurred in the last decades of the twentieth century, and their implications both in healthcare and in the recomposing of its socio-professional groups, five trends are emphasized in terms of the professionalisation processes portrayed by this sector, concerning the relations of professional power and domination; the effects of task and skill delegation, and the ensuing transfer of legitimacy among socio-professional groups; the degree of autonomy; the variability of everyday situations occurring in different work contexts translating itself in contradictory and paradoxical trends; the effect of recent changes in the labor market scenarios within the frame of growing job insecurity and deregulation.
