With one current population estimated in 33, 4 million, including workers without work contract and workers by their own, which are vulnerable to physic and mental illness, the related literature still does not have enough published studies about the psycho-sociological conditions of these workers. At all, eight articles were used for this revision, being these published on following academic bases: Lilacs, Pepsic e Scielo. From the whole reading of these articles, it was concluded that there are specific aspects that contribute for mental illness and others that contribute for informal workers health, including pleasure and hurting elements, based on dejorian theory. In addition, questions like autonomy, freedom on workplace, recognition and absence of social security were also reported as factors that interfere in mental health, as other elements that, despite being search results, they did not have relation with some authors.
