This study aimed to analyze the relationship between the increase in the number of degree courses in nursing and the nursing job market. It is a descriptive exploratory study with a quantitative approach, which used data on Undergraduate Nursing courses, supply of nurses, connection with health facilities, and formal jobs in nursing in the state of Minas Gerais. The evolution of Undergraduate Nursing courses reveals a supply and demand decline in recent years. Such context is determined by the nurse's labor market being influenced by the contradiction of a professional quantitative surplus, particularly in the state's less developed areas, as opposed to a low percentage of nurses to care for the population's health. These characteristics of the nursing labor market reproduce inequalities furthermore aspects such as the regulation of nursing education and the creation of new jobs need to be discussed further.
本研究旨在分析护理学学位课程数量的增加与护理就业市场之间的关系。这是一项采用定量方法的描述性探索性研究,使用了米纳斯吉拉斯州本科护理课程、护士供应、与卫生设施的联系以及护理正式工作的数据。本科护理课程的发展表明,近年来供需有所下降。这种情况是由护士劳动力市场受到专业人员数量过剩矛盾的影响所决定的,特别是在该州较不发达地区,与之形成对比的是,从事人口健康护理工作的护士比例较低。护理劳动力市场的这些特征进一步加剧了不平等,此外,护理教育监管和新工作岗位创造等方面需要进一步讨论。
