Abstract

The present study analyze the phenomenon of outsourcing in the context of contemporary productive restructuring, in order to demystify the fallacy produced socially by outsourcing market provides more opportunities for jobs and the possibility to workers become achievers. Also search to unravel how this phenomenon produces significant changes in employment relationships that make precarious working conditions, become rights no regular, contracts and bonds weakened intensify the work’s exploration. With reference in the foundations of Mark’s social theory, was held a search, bibliographic in nature, which allowed seizing the particularity of the phenomenon of outsourcing to more general determinations of articulated capitalist development in contemporary times. The premise of the research is that outsourcing process with productive restructuring generalize as a capitalist control mechanisms with regard to the management of in response to the structural crisis in 1970s, not only to minimize the effects of structural unemployment, but mainly to reduce the costs of reproductions of capital, change working relationships and make workers more subject to capital ratio. Also believes that the outsourcing processes have their origins in the earliest expressions of the chores, during the consolidation of the major industry in the period of competitive capitalism, Marx called “external department of the factory”. The study notes that outsourcing is a global phenomenon that affects both the countries of the central economy as peripheral countries. Causes changes in the management of the substantive work, reaching initially to hire workers in the sphere of services, and then extends to the workers inserted in industrial production. And today, in Brazil in particular, reaches the majority of companies in various sectors of the economy, including metallurgy, banking, port sector, chemical and petroleum industry, trade/services and the public sector, both those low-skilled jobs as the most qualified. It’s observed that although outsourcing is a phenomenon considered “new” in capitalism, he replaces archaic practices of capitalism control that extend the forms of subordination of the work. This is because the contractors increase working relationships through various forms of subcontracting that intensify the exploration of working time, extend the harms to health and safety at work, weakened by continuous threat workers subjectively unemployment due to temporary, flexible labor right links, makes precarious working conditions, threatening the Union Organization and contribute to the loss of the sense of belonging of class, in addition to weakening the political struggle of the workers.
