This article presents some of the most relevant findings of a qualitative research that included fifteen interviews with health workers (doctors, kinesiologists and nurses) who work in areas of care for patients with Covid-19 in public hospitals and private clinics in seven provinces of Argentina.The objective was to highlight the transformations in their daily routines, with a particular emphasis on the consequences that the emergence of new occupational risks brought. The main hypothesis states that since the emergence of the pandemic, health personnel, especially those working in the Intensive Care Units, began to work at a risk threshold. That is, in a daily relationship with an imminent or effective health catastrophe, which caused physical and psychosocial symptoms and sufferings even in the case of those that had a vast experience. If anything was intensely modified, it was the hi...

El objetivo principal de este artículo es analizar la compleja relación entre las empresas recuperadas por sus obreros en la Argentina y el Estado durante la última década. Para cumplir con este plan, exploraré la evolución de las políticas públicas implementadas por el Ministerio de Trabajo, Empleo y Seguridad Social para estas experiencias autogestionarias. Una conclusión fundamental del estudio realizado señala que los gobiernos desde 2003, luego de la grave crisis social, política y económica causada por la aplicación sistemática de políticas neoliberales, requirieron una progresiva incorporación de las formas autoorganizativas creadas y consolidadas por movimientos sociales de base, como lo son las empresas recuperadas.
