In first place this article presents an approach to the problems and psychosocial risks faced by university adjunct professors given the new working conditions imposed in the country by the Higher Education market. It deals later with the evolution of Colombian law regarding identification and protection of the psychosocial risks; particularly, where there are established factors which allow the identification of responsibilities regarding exposure that employees may have to psychosocial risk factors as byproduct of occupational stress, offering parameters for the assessment, prevention, study and management of the risks. It also presents the results of the exploratory research “Degree of Assessment of Psychosocial risks factors performed by academic areas on adjunct professors at Antioquia universities”, where it was encouraged the need for a more in-depth study regarding the issues concerning working conditions of the adjunct professors at the University of Antioquia and the Politécnico Jaime Isaza Cadavid in the city of Medellín.
