Abstract

This article aims to present and reflect on expressions of gender, race and class inequalities experienced by technicians who graduated from the courses of the environment and health axis of the Federal Institute of Paraná, in their workspace. As the research was carried out during the Covid 19 Pandemic period, the discussion about the implications of this context is also part of this article. To this end, we will analyze the corpus resulting from 162 online questionnaires and 20 semi-structured interviews carried out with graduates of subsequent technical courses in: nursing, massage therapy, dental prosthesis, radiology and oral health trained at the Federal Institute of Paraná, Campus Curitiba and Campus Londrina, in the period between 2015 and 2019. As a result, we point out that these professionals experience gender, race and class inequalities in their work spaces, which are often ratified by common sense, are naturalized in everyday life and are not always perceived as inequalities.
