Type: article
Abstract: This study has presented an analysis on the theme of the access to social security services by unpaid caregivers of beneficiaries of the Continuous Payment Benefit (BPC). In view of the familial stance adopted by the Brazilian State, that is, the transfer of social protection responsibilities to the family, the aim is to investigate whether caregivers of BPC beneficiaries have access to social security services in the Zone region of the Minas Gerais Forest. To this end, a qualitative, descriptive research is presented, using bibliographical research on the proposed theme, and semi-structured interviews carried out with 08 caregivers of BPC users in the municipalities of Tombos, Espera Feliz, Viçosa and Muriaé. The data were analyzed using the content analysis technique and the use of Iramuteq software. It was concluded that caregivers have access to social assistance and health policies; although this access is limited; but they are unprotected under Social Security policy.
