Abstract: ?Drawing on an ethnographical approach paying close attention to biographical careers, this article focuses on the relationship subcontractors and their partners have with a professional activity defined by considerable geographical mobility and structural exposition to radioactivity. This work, seized as an opportunity by young men and couples, demands a challenging organization of the life ?on the side? which is tolerated for a while, but which is also unable to put an end to male professional fatigue and can even turn out to deteriorate family life. While workers and their partners are busy holding together to face the constraints of long time separation, the risks of work, long ignored, eventually bring trouble and anxiety into family life. This situation affects relatives whose support appears to be decisive, in the mobilization dynamics for the defense of health as well as in the industrial disease experience.?
