Materials and Methods:Cross-sectional, descriptive, quantitative study. The study population was 46 transvestite prostitutes from the city of Uberlândia-MG. Results And Discussions:At the first moment, the socioeconomic data of the interviewees were observed, which are mostly single, have low level of schooling and other details. Conclusions:The lack of humanization by those who should be a reference in care and safety makes this group vulnerable.

KEYWORDS: Sex work. Travestism. Gender-Based Violence. Workplace Violence.
