Hombres en trabajos remunerados de cuidado: género, identidad laboral y cultura del trabajo

Abstract

En el presente artículo presentamos los primeros resultados de una investigación en curso sobre la participación de los hombres en el cuidado de personas adultas en situación de dependencia. En concreto nos centraremos en analizar las experiencias y percepciones de los hombres que tienen un trabajo remunerado de cuidados en organizaciones que operan en distintos sectores de la actividad económica, como servicios sociales, sanidad, servicio doméstico e, incluso, hostelería. Consideramos que dado el colapso existente en la atención a los cuidados de larga duración, que forma parte de lo que se ha calificado como crisis de los cuidados, deberá producirse una mayor implicación de los hombres, tanto en el ámbito familiar como en el laboral que es el que aquí nos ocupa. Conocer en qué circunstancias acceden a estos trabajos, cómo experimentan su actividad en relación al género o qué barreras culturales y de oportunidad limitan o favorecen la incorporación de los hombres en los trabajos remunerados de cuidado puede ayudar a favorecer esta implicación.

In the present article we present the initial results of an ongoing investigation into male participation in the care of adults in situations of dependency. Specifically, we analyse the experiences and perceptions of men professionally employed as paid care workers in organisations that operate in various sectors of the economy, including social services, health, home care and, even, the hotel sector. We believe that given the current collapse in long-term care provision, which forms part of the so-called ‘care crisis’, there should be greater involvement of men both in the family and professional setting and this is therefore the focus of the present study. Understanding the circumstances by which men enter these jobs, how they experience their work in relation to their gender and the cultural and employment barriers that limit or enable men to enter into paid care work will help strengthen their involvement.
