Dones migrants al servei domèstic: conciliació de la vida de les conciliadores. (DOI: 10.2436/20.3005.01.39)

catalaActualment el flux migratori internacional s’ha feminitzat, quasi la meitat es compost per dones. No obstant aixo, malgrat exercir una influencia en el comportament i en els projectes migratoris, la variable de genere habitualment no ha estat recollida com a variable especi- fica. L’article posa atencio en el col·lectiu de treballadores de la llar atesa la poca visibilitat que tenen en el debat public. Al mateix temps, ha d’assumir un triple risc d’exclusio social (dones, migrants i amb precarietat laboral). Aquest col·lectiu ha estat un suport important per a moltes families europees en permetre a la dona, que continua assumint amb major grau la responsabilitat de la llar, conciliar la vida familiar i professional. Les questions clau sobre les quals reflexionarem son les possibilitats de conciliacio que tenen les mateixes «reconciliadores», i tambe les oportunitats de participacio i, per tant, d’integracio a la societat d’acollida. El sector economic no afavoreix l’acces a aquests dos processos ates que l’acces a drets laborals es desigual i tambe hi ha una part important de situacions dins l’economia submergida. Aquesta realitat no ha estat abordada en profunditat dins del debat public. Son els moviments de dones dins del marc del feminisme dialogic els que estan formulant estrategies mes efectives i equitatives d’inclusio social i d’igualtat d’oportunitats. EnglishInternational migration is currently characterised by a feminisation trend, with women making up approximately half of the migration flow. However, although this affects migration behaviour and routes, gender is not usually present as a distinct variable. The article draws attention to female domestic workers and their low visibility in the public debate. At the same time, the threefold risk of social exclusion (for being women, migrants and in informal employment) must be taken into account. This group has provided significant support to many European families allowing women, who continue to assume greater responsibility for household work than men, to reconcile family and professional life. Key questions reflected in the article are the reconciliation of work and family life from the perspective of women domestic workers, who in turn help other women tackle the work-family dynamic, and the opportunities for female domestic workers to participate and thus integrate in the host society. Inequality in employment rights and the fact that many domestic sector activities are unregulated does not favour these two processes. Although these aspects have not been addressed in depth within the public debate, women’s movements working within the framework of dialogic feminism are formulating fair and effective strategies for social inclusion and equal opportunities
