In last decades, has brought into question the centrality of labour. This had consequences not only in terms of economic productivity, but also on the lives of people, in the objective and subjective. This research focuses on the subjective level, specifically in the description of political subjectivation processes of manufacturing workers in the Metropolitan Region in the context of fragmented work. We consider the political subjectivation as a product of a relationship between three spheres: Centrality of work, Social Integration and Political Character. The spheres are constructed from deductive-inductive logic. We examined the ways in which they relate, identifying which become relevant and which elements are composed. It tries to observe how these subjectivities are constructed and how policies are embodied in action mechanisms. The results show that political subjectivation processes are mainly from the areas of the Centrality of labor and Social Integration.
