Abstract:Résumé À partir d’une enquête réalisée avec les salariées d’une plate-forme téléphonique dans la distribution d’énergie, cet article montre comment le coaching devient un nouvel instrument de standardisation et de contrôle du travail émotionnel des conseillères-clientèle. Les techniques de séduction préconisées se greffent sur l’exigence de rationalisation du process de travail aboutissant à un « robot de séduction ». La résistance des travailleuses s’exprime principalement à travers l’usage éthique du contrôl… Show more
“…He hopes LMP, by freeing the organization from current routines, will facilitate ongoing innovation and establish a competitive advantage from the frontline upwards. This has important implications in the context of a call center where traditionally organizing is very much topdown and even neo-Taylorian, and where processes and roles are strictly defined (Boutet, 2005;Calderón, 2005;Linhart, 2010).…”

This paper examines the ebb and flow of organizational power and control during an organizational change where a CEO mobilized narratives to liberate his company from top-down control. The emergent conceptual model makes sense of what appears to be discursive disorder – a cacophony of change narratives. Its contribution is twofold. Firstly, by identifying three ‘narratives in the making’ – the initial, counter and corrective narratives, it elaborates the meso-level narrative mechanisms at the heart of discursive struggles during change and extends Boje’s (2010) triad of narrativity. Secondly, it confirms the utility of the ‘organizational becoming’ and CCO perspectives of organizing for understanding change.

“…La névrose des téléphonistes s'inscrit dans le champ des recherches sur la fatigue nerveuse et montre comment une activité parcellisée, étroitement prescrite et exercée sous la pression des usagers, peut aboutir à une détérioration rapide de l'équilibre psychique. Cette recherche pionnière inaugure toute une série de recherches ultérieures sur le coût psychique du travail dans les centres d'appel, notamment dans les années 2000 (Dessors et al, 1978 ;Arnaudo, 2005 ;Calderon, 2005). L'enquête sur les « bonnes à tout faire » analyse l'impact de la servitude sur la santé mentale en mettant en évidence trois traits saillants de leur « condition » : le ressentiment, l'isolement et la dépersonnalisation.…”

“…Ces usages du corps ne sont pas laissés à l'initiative du travailleur mais sont prescrits et contrôlés. Ils ont été décrits dans la vente de vêtements (Forseth, Dahl-Jorgensen, 2002) et les centres d'appels où les téléactrices sont encouragées à séduire leurs interlocuteurs pour placer leurs produits, qu'il s'agisse d'assurances ou de cartes de crédit par exemple (Calderon, 2005). Ainsi, le corps, la sexualité et la performance de genre font partie du travail (5) .…”

“…Assim, as possibilidades previstas não agregariam nem deixariam um espaço que permitisse articular as possíveis variáveis da situação de atendimento. As principais queixas dos atendentes estão ligadas à rigidez, pois o diálogo não pode fluir e adquire características rígidas, torna-se robotizado e mecanizado, dificultando a construção de sentido no trabalho (CALDERON, 2005). A maioria dos atendentes, apesar destas queixas, não deseja a eliminação do script e sim a sua flexibilização (ZIMMERMAN, 2005).…”

Este artigo apresenta uma discussão relativa a aspectos significativos do trabalho em centrais de atendimento estudadas sob o ponto de vista da ergonomia e da psicodinâmica do trabalho. A discussão se apóia nos estudos realizados em empresas situadas nas cidades de São Paulo e Brasília entre meados dos anos 1990 e início dos anos 2000. As centrais de atendimento em questão se dedicam sobretudo a atividades financeiras (cartões de crédito, bancos), serviço público e telefonia (celular e fixa). Os resultados apontam para a importância de se modificar os paradigmas que norteiam o projeto do trabalho dos atendentes visando reverter os processos de sofrimento e adoecimento no trabalho. Além disso, eles sugerem novos paradigmas nos quais o trabalho é considerado como uma ferramenta de desenvolvimento profissional. Portanto, um meio para a realização pessoal dos atendentes e também para atingir objetivos de produtividade e qualidade compatíveis com o desenvolvimento humano e das organizações.
