          Abstract

          Resumo Há um consenso na literatura internacional de que as centrais de atendimento são o ambiente ideal para investigar os conflitos do trabalho contemporâneo. Apesar disso, não identificamos pesquisas no Brasil sobre a resistência à vigilância eletrônica nesses ambientes. Considerando o potencial teórico e prático do tema, este artigo identifica as atividades monitoradas eletronicamente pelos gestores de centrais de atendimento e descreve os comportamentos de resistência informal à vigilância eletrônica percebidos por eles em seus subordinados. Fundamentando-se na literatura de resistência ao controle, foram realizadas entrevistas semiestruturadas com nove gestores que trabalhavam em centrais de diferentes setores de uma capital nordestina. Na pesquisa, utilizamos a análise de conteúdo categorial com suporte do software NVivo®. Nossos resultados mostram o uso intenso das tecnologias para monitorar os operadores. A maioria dos gestores identificou situações de resistência em seus subordinados. Trabalhar lentamente, trapacear e fofocar foram os comportamentos citados por mais entrevistados.

          Abstract There is a widespread agreement in international literature that call centers are the ideal place to investigate conflicts in contemporary work. However, we did not found researches about resistance to electronic surveillance in these places in Brazil. Regarding the theoretical and practical relevance of the subject, this article identifies the activities monitored electronically by call centers managers’ and describes behaviours of informal resistance to electronic surveillance perceived by these managers in their subordinates. Based on the literature about resistance to control, semistructured interviews were conducted with nine managers working for call centers of different industries in a northeastern capital of Brazil. To analyze data were used categorical content analysis with support of software NVivo®. Our results demonstrates a intense use of technologies to monitor operators’ work. Most managers identified situations of resistance in their subordinates. Work slowly, cheat and gossip were the resistance to eletronic surveillance cited by most interviewers.
