ESCOBAR, Fernando Iván Ceballos. EXTENDING HOURS AND REDUCING TEACHER WORKING CONDITIONS: THE CASE OF TWO FULL-TIME SCHOOLS IN COLIMA, MEXICO. Revista da FAEEBA: Educação e Contemporaneidade [online]. 2023, vol.32, n.70, pp.91-108.  Epub 29-Ago-2023. ISSN 2358-0194.  https://doi.org/10.21879/faeeba2358-0194.2023.v32.n70.p91-108.

This paper analyses the labor relationships that were promoted since the school hours extension through the Escuelas de Tiempo Completo Program and the effects that they had on the personal and labor lives of the teachers in two primary schools. It is an instrumental study of two cases carried out via participant observation and interviews to the members of the community. Results show that labor conditions within the Program are diverse according to the affiliation to either one of the two labor unions in the state. In one of them, the joining process and the remuneration obeyed to logics of flexibilization and precariousness under which the Program was designed. In the other, these were transformed into bureaucratic and corporate schemes that offered better conditions for the teachers. The appreciation of the possibilities that their job offered them to perform professionally and manage their personal time, and the remuneration obtained for the additional hours, influenced the ways they related to their tasks and built meaning about their profession and their belonging to the institution. Subjects mobilize in the face of negative conditions, although these tactics often break down without having any effect on policies.
