| Popis: | The COVID-19 pandemic quickly changed lifestyles worldwide, including school routines, teaching and learning methods, and teaching practices, resulting in job insecurity and discouragement. From a psychodynamic perspective, work recognition, by promoting a form of symbolic reward for the work contribution, would allow for the construction of meaning attributed to the experiences of suffering during the pandemic, thus protecting the mental health of this professional category. This research aimed to understand the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and the return to in-person classes on the recognition of the work of public elementary school teachers in a school in southern Brazil. A qualitative study was conducted, using participant observation recorded in field diaries and focus groups. The results indicate that social distancing and remote education during the COVID-19 pandemic had detrimental effects on teacher recognition. According to the participants, this recognition mainly occurs through relationships with students and colleagues and is insufficient from the management. Fake news and misinformation have also affected recognition, further amplifying the devaluation already perceived in the scenario of precarious working conditions in education, and contributing to the illness of this professional category. It is concluded that there is an urgent need to promote institutional actions aimed at labor recognition and the improvement of working conditions in basic education, which have been affected by the pandemic. |
