Capitalist societies are marked by change, gradual and progressive, in ways that bind to the economy, politics, culture, among others, directly impacting the ways of designing and producing the work action. Understanding that this is a central element in structuring the lives of individuals, as well as the dynamic organization of societies, it is important to understand how the work, wrapped in capitalist everyday organizations, is meaning and undertaken in the midst of this logic. This research is then proposed to investigate the work processes of meaning, choosing as occupational category artisanal workers, believing they would bring very important contributions due to the peculiar characteristics of the activity that develop among them, the fact of being a previous activity to capitalism itself (often considered the first action human labor capacity, the work itself prototype). They interviewed 20 craftsman in the Greater Natal region / RN, individually, in several areas of that territory. The results indicate that the referenced public means work from three major specific dimensions, linked to the traditionalism of the processes, the structuring of activity and relations necessary for its development, highlighting tensions in the articulation of an activity, which has in its origin, freedom and autonomy as strong development centers, and established within the capitalist dynamics, gives up such ideals in order to function as another form of survival and maintenance workers, submitted to the precariousness of their actions labor.
