Efeito Reda: contratação precária e suas repercussões no Ensino na Educação Profissional

Abstract

This paper analyzes the repercussions of the precarization of teaching work, materialized in the Special Regime of Administrative Law (REDA), on the teaching-learning process in Professional and Technological Education (EPT) in the state of Bahia. It starts from the understanding that contractual instability, turnover, and work overload, characteristics of this temporary hiring regime, impose structural obstacles to the consolidation of continuous pedagogical practices and to the realization of the principles of integrated education. Using a qualitative and descriptive approach, the research adopts the autobiographical memorial as its method, inspired by the assumptions of action research, articulating the researcher's hybrid trajectory: a mechanical engineer with industry experience, a REDA teacher in EPT, and a Mathematics licensure graduate, with the field's critical theoretical framework, particularly Frigotto, Ciavatta, Saviani, and Ramos. The analysis shows that teaching precarization transcends the labor sphere, directly affecting the curriculum, pedagogical planning, the continuity of formative processes, and the development of student autonomy. As a contribution, pedagogical resistance strategies are discussed, such as short-cycle active methodologies, collaborative planning, and shared pedagogical records, which, although they do not replace structural transformations, constitute possible mediations in the face of the analyzed contradictions. It is concluded that overcoming the fragilities of EPT is deeply linked to teacher appreciation, professional stability, and the implementation of public examinations, reaffirming that no emancipatory project of professional education is possible without decent working conditions for teachers.
