“…In contrast, the woman's social invisibility leads to the disqualification and concealment of female labor for the naturalization of women's skills or even illness. Hirata and Kergoat (2007) argue that such naturalization means considering certain skills or qualifications as women's natural abilities linked to their anatomy or gender. However, in the process of organizing the community, nothing is invisible.…”

Work relations and helping in the lives of Amazon rural women workers

Changes in methods of agricultural production have impacted on the lives of those involved in this sector. New social relations, technologies, values and landscapes have been introduced as well as potential risks to health. Female workers have a specific experience that requires a closer analysis to understand their situation. The research addresses the interrelationship of health, work, and the environment of women agriculturalists in a rural Amazonian community. This focus allows the identification and understanding of relations between the women and the actors with whom they share daily activities and the implications for health, work, and self-image. Using qualitative methods the experiences of 47 women were captured through collective interviews, which were analysed by Nucleus of Meaning Analysis (NMA), adapted from Categorical Content Analysis. Work is central to the lives of the women workers but is attributed with different meanings depending on the context and the relationship. It was found that the relationship with employers increases the risk of workplace exploitation; with male partners work is characterised as 'helping'. Work with female co-workers increases a sense of identity, strengthens social bonds and an ability to solve problems. In conclusion, in addition to issues related to production methods, the subjective relational universe of these workers is marked by a complexity that impacts on their lives and health. The authors suggest that research on the impact of daily life and workplace on health considers the different and complex relations and subjective demands, especially in contexts endowed with uniqueness.

“…Ocorreria também um desnível salarial em todos os níveis, mas preponderante nos mais altos do setor. A literatura internacional sobre a temática respalda, em geral, esse panorama (Panteli et al, 1999;Grundy, 1996;Tijdens, 1997), ainda que com nuanças variadas. No entanto, a exemplo do que já foi ressaltado por Rapkiewicz (1998), considero que a dominação masculina em TI no Brasil é menos pronunciada que em outros setores, como na engenharia ou nas hard sciences.…”

“…Pode-se creditar essa variação à prevalência de uma representação social masculina das atividades de programação e codificação, relacionadas à racionalidade, à ciência e à técnica, embora compreendam, em algumas fases do desenvolvimento industrial de softwares, procedimentos padronizados e rotineiros e que não exigem uma qualificação em nível superior. À medida que a programação e a engenharia de software ganham visibilidade com a pervasividade do uso de artefatos e serviços de TI e de sua decorrente importância econômica, tornam-se mais fortes os efeitos dos princípios que Hirata e Kergoat (2007) tão bem identificaram na divisão sexual do trabalho: diferenciação e hierarquia. Quando se requerem dezenas de digitadores/as para processar um lote de documentos e as atividades de TI no nível da entrada de dados, pensa-se apenas em dedos ágeis e nada de raciocínio; eis aí o lugar das mulheres.…”

Rendimento por sexo e grupos ocupacionais em TI (2003( -2014. No que concerne à organização de trabalho nas instituições e empresas do setor há que se considerar as recentes transformações nos requisitos e funções desempenhadas nos grupos ocupacionais, diante das relações que a empresa deve manter com o usuário ou demandante.…”

“…No que se refere à experiência no trabalho, o resultado reforça o que a literatura sobre desigualdades raciais constata, ou seja, de que os negros começam a trabalhar mais cedo, por condicionantes históricos e sociais com origem na dominação colonialista e escravista (cf. Hasenbalg e Silva, 2003;Lima, 2001). O resultado para esse preditor indica que, se negros e brancos trabalhadores em TI tiverem o mesmo rendimento e mantendo o valor de todos os demais preditores para ambos, trabalhadores brancos terão em média 3,8% mais idade que os negros e 4,3% mais em relação à escolaridade, além de 2,9% a mais em termos de tempo de emprego.…”

Information technology work includes occupations in which middle to high education prevails and which are developed in a heterogeneous field of economic activities. The article's main objective is to analyze differences in terms of income and occupational insertion related to gender and race in the IT sector. The main data sources come from databases of the Brazilian government (Census, PNAD, RAIS), but also from academic production concerned with IT work, primarily in the sociology of work, economics and scientific policy issues. As regards gender, what was found was not exactly a pronounced difference in women's and men's average incomes, but a difference of inclusion in the

BackgroundPrevious studies have supported the relevance of using broad and complex approaches, including multiple explanatory categories, to analyze mental disorders in the working population. This study aimed to assess the direct and indirect effects of gender, race, social class, and occupational stressors on mental health.MethodsA cross‐sectional study used a random sample of 3343 health workers. The effort–reward imbalance (ERI) scale measured occupational stressors. The World Health Organization Self‐Reporting Questionnaire (SRQ‐20) evaluated common mental disorders (CMDs) as outcomes. The role of gender, race/color, and class determinants (level of schooling and income) in the relationship between occupational stressors and CMD was assessed. Structural equation modeling was used to determine associations and effects.ResultsOccupational stressors were directly associated with CMD and mediated the relationship between income and CMD. Gender was directly associated with occupational stressors, income, and domestic overload. Race was associated with education and with CMD through indirect paths mediated by class indicators. Class indicators contributed to increasing exposure to occupational stressors and the occurrence of CMD.ConclusionThe results highlight the relevance of gender, race/color, and class in understanding the unequal distribution of work stressors and mental illness in health workers.
