Women Workers in Textiles

Abstract: Abstract Statistically speaking, most workers in this study are men (77 per cent), of whom eight out of ten are married, usually with no more than two children, and in only just one in ten cases with wives who go out to work. The workers in these factories are not homogeneous however. Part II therefore moves beyond the general account attempted so far and provides a consideration of first gender- and then ethnic-specificities within the workforce.
