Abstract

The transformations in the world of labor, since the end of the Fordist era up to the current models of flexible accumulation, strongly impacted the nature of labor. The new form of organization and management of labor, characterized by exerting a pressure and much greater control over the worker and his productivity and the flexibilization of labor rights promoted by the neoliberal model of productive restructuring, bringing new practices of control over the labor activity. These new working conditions can lead to the practice of bullying, a process of psychological violence against the worker, which threatens their fundamental human rights. This paper aims to reflect on the concepts and meanings related to bullying in labor relations, the adoption of the managerialist ideology by private higher education institutions and how the faculty perceives the managerialist practices of control and discipline of their work activities. In the current context of labor, new patterns of use of the workforce, new forms of work organization and new relationships of power. Control practices exercised by businesses are sustained by the threat of unemployment, against a backdrop of job insecurity and high unemployment rates. In this environment bullying has found fertile ground for its emergence and amplification due to the constant changes in the ways of production management and people management that create new levels of requirements for workers, caused mainly by advances in technology, hypercompetitiveness linked to the managerialist ideolog.
