Resumo Objetivou-se investigar como os profissionais de enfermagem compreendem o assédio moral, bem como identificar essas situações vivenciadas pelos profissionais dessa área, suas causas e consequên-cias para a saúde desses trabalhadores. Trata-se de uma pesquisa exploratória, de natureza qualitativa, da qual participaram 15 profissionais de enfermagem atuantes em unidades de saúde da família, da cidade de João Pessoa, na Paraíba. A coleta de dados foi realizada no período de abril a maio de 2013 e ocorreu mediante uma entrevista gravada. Os dados foram analisados por meio da técnica de análise de conteúdo. Da análise do material, emergiram três categorias: Assédio moral, conceito e características na visão dos profissionais de enfermagem; Comportamentos de assédio moral experimentados por profissionais de enfermagem; e Consequências do assédio moral. Conclui-se que o assédio moral é disseminado entre enfermeiros e técnicos de enfermagem, apesar de alguns profissionais discernirem o conceito dessa prática, sendo notória a prevalência do tipo descendente.

This is a qualitative exploratory research study in which 15 nursing professionals working at family health facilities in the city of João Pessoa, state of Paraíba, Brazil took part. Data collection took place between April and May 2013 by means of a recorded interview. The data were analyzed using the content analysis technique. The analysis of the material revealed three categories: Moral harassment: Concept and characteristics from the nursing professionals' viewpoint; Moral harassment behaviors experienced by nursing professionals, and Consequences of the moral harassment. We conclude that moral harassment is widespread among nurses and nursing technicians, although some professionals understand the concept of this practice, and the prevalence of the descending type is notorious.
