This article discusses the relationship between the intensification of teachers’ labour and health of professors. The data obtained are based on research that had for object the work of post-graduation programs professors in a public university. The qualitative research, theoretically and methodologically grounded by historical-dialectical materialism, used interviews as the main instrument of data collection. For that, were interviewed 11 professors from two post-graduation programs of the Federal University of Goiás (UFG), in the period from 2010 to 2012, namely PPGEO and PPGEcoEvol, the programs that achieved concept six in the CAPES evaluation. The present research is justified by the observation of the profound transformations that occurred not only in higher education, but also in Brazilian post-graduation, especially after the State Reform of the 1990s. The new requirements have improved over time and have culminated in the increase of the evaluation demands made by the agencies of promotion of research, which unfold in intensification of labour. The report of professors interviewed showed a series of physical and psychological symptoms in all professors, either due to lack of rest, work overload or difficulty in handling the demands of academic and administrative work linked to post-graduation studies.

Palabras clave : Teachers’ labour; Health of professors; Intensification of labour.
