This work paper is justified by seeking to understand: How the teachers health who work in the first years of elementary education is compromised in relation to the working conditions that they are submitted? The theoretical reference focuses on literature at the international and national levels, such as: Nóvoa (1995), Oliveira (2003;2010), Assunção and Oliveira (2009), Gasparini, Barreto and Assunção (2005), Assunção (2003), Codo (1999), Apple (2005), Vincentini and Lugli (2009), Esteve (1995), among others. And, in local level we appreciated Camargo (2004), Maués (et al., 2012), Camargo, Ferreira and Luz (2012), Medeiros and Reis (2012), Reis (2014), Solimões (2015), Barros (2013), who have developed researches that involve working conditions and teachers health. Official documents that deal with the Brazilian educational legislation complement the referential. The research methodology used is qualitative with semi-structured interview, the analysis of the data from the understanding of Dialectical Hermeneutics, which enabled us to understand the reality lived by the teachers, according to the condition that they develop their work.
