Evoluidade: o programa de preparação para a aposentadoria da UFPel: o olhar dos servidores aposentados participantes do programa

Abstract

The opportunity of retirement, for most workers, is a desired process and sometimes difficult to face without it being planned. Aware of this, public and private organizations have increasingly been concerned with this reality and adopting strategies to assist workers in transition to the post-career. Thus, the Retirement Preparation Programs play a fundamental role in valuing individuals who are close to it, contributing to their well-being in this important moment of life, such as for society as a whole. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the scope of the actions of the Retirement Preparation Program of the Federal University of Pelotas, EVOLUIDADE, from the point of view of the participants in the period 2017-2019 and who are currently retired, seeking to identify the effects of retirement on the lives of the interviewees in order to formulate an intervention proposal with the purpose of improving the program. The choice of period is justified by the growth in the number of pensions of civil servants due to the proposal for Pension Reform of the Bolsonaro Government. This is qualitative research, an explanatory approach, and the case study technique is used. For data collection from the target audience, the research instrument used was the semi-structured interview, conducted via the web, due to the moment of the COVID-19 pandemic. With this study, we sought to contribute to the improvement of the existing program in the institution.
