Abstract

This paper aims to analyze the continuities and developments of domestic work, having Campos dos Goytacazes city as field of analysis, as it is the largest city in Rio de Janeiro state. Using data from interviews carried out with employers and domestic employees, I intend to comprehend the maintenance of a work relationship based on the moral depreciation of this kind of work, whereas it is perceptive, among the interviewed workers the idea of “belonging to the family”. However, this proximity does not ensure that the domestic worker has, in many observed cases, the guarantee of their rights. It is also possible to envision on this reality some perspectives of development, which can point out to a possibility of transformation of this kind of work. It is also necessary to point out the sensitivity that involves this kind of relationship in which women come closer for their gender condition and grow apart for their social condition stressed in this kind of work relation.
