RESUMO

This dissertation analyses the world of work for men and women residing in Distrito Federal (DF) with permanent ostomy, with a main focus on disability, given that ostomy has been recognized as a physical disability, due to the bowel incontinence, by the Decree 5.296, of 2 December, 2004. Living in a society that subjugates and segregates disabled people, users of ostomy pouches to feces elimination are discriminated and eventually face socially imposed disabilities when dissociated from the attributes of a productive, capitalist society; such as independence, efficiency, and productivity. This study aimed to analyze the reasons why men and women with permanent ostomy do not return to the world of work and to determine if the observed behavior is gender specific. This qualitative based research made use of close-ended questionnaires to establish the profile of people with permanent ostomy in addition to the use of in-depth interviews that aimed to explore their world of work. For the in-depth interview, an accidental sample was defined by choosing men and women with permanent ostomy or ostomy and urostomy for one year or more, excluding the ones retired in the occasion of the ostomy and according to the legal working age in Brazil. The gathered data has been examined by using content analysis techniques. Studying the universe of people with permanent ostomy means becoming familiar and recognizing situations of social and economical inequalities that are influenced by the stigmatization process related to income, educational level as well as to world of work. A positive appreciation of the individuals in their domestic environment has been observed after the permanent ostomy was performed. It was also observed that the ostomized people did not return to the formal world of work.
