La formación profesional en el empleo doméstico: análisis del estado de la cuestión

Abstract

The domestic employment sector is a privileged observatory that evidences the validity of the classic sexual division of labor that rests on the labor exploitation of substitutes or servants and perpetuates discrimination in a deeply segmented labor market. And it is evident that, in the face of this, it is necessary both to promote intra-family co-responsibility and to encourage the training and qualification of the group and the services it provides, fundamental, unavoidable in the new social context that the incorporation of women into the labor market draws in the present and, of course, in the immediate future. We are in the presence of an emerging sector, a source of employment, an essential service to the community and an activity whose demand will continue to grow in the face of the lack of public provision of care and that, for the good of all, it is necessary to rethink imminent form in the following line: dignify and professionalize it. And for this, the role of training and professional qualification is undeniable no matter where you look.
