Abstract

GUIMARAES, Nadya Araújo. Laboriosas mas redundantes: gênero e mobilidade no trabalho no Brasil dos 90. Rev. Estud. Fem. [online]. 2001, vol.09, n.01, pp.82-102. ISSN 1806-9584.

This article focuses on the inter-sectorial mobility of industrial workers in Brazil based on longitudinal data from the Brazilian Ministry of Labor on the number of hired and dismissed workers during the 1990s. Comparing two industries in two regional labor markets, the author argues that gender differences are important for understanding patterns of mobility in formal labor markets independent of the degree of their formality, the different patterns of women's work permeability, and the nature of their restructuring process.

Keywords : Women's Work; Unemployment; Occupational Mobility; Brazil; Industry.
