Objective: to analyze positive and negative aspects related to the self-esteem of outsourced workers in hospital hygiene and cleaning services. Method: exploratory study, with a qualitative approach, carried out in two private hospital institutions. Participants were outsourced workers from hygiene and cleaning services. For data collection, a sociodemographic questionnaire and a semi-structured interview script were used. Inductive thematic analysis was performed. Results: the sample consisted of 15 female workers, who expressed positive and negative aspects that affect their self-esteem, which are related to the organization and work environment, interpersonal relationships and work benefits. Conclusion: positive and negative aspects are present among these workers and hospital managers should reflect on the hygiene and cleaning service, establishing educational and collective strategies for workers related to work practices carried out in this context.
