Summary:In this article, we analyse the relationship between the intensification of work and organizational flexibility. Specifically, we focus on teamwork, considered as an emblematic organizational strategy of flexible and efficient organizations.

Based on the results, we propose that analysis of the intensity of work be incorporated into social dialogue and the prevention of occupational risks.
