Resumo
As traballadoras domésticas enfrontan numerosos problemas para poder organizarse, como a descentralización da poboación activa ou a natureza da súa relación laboral. Este artigo analiza, a partir da comparación de varios países, como se organizan as traballadoras do fogar pese a estas limitacións. Identificamos tres formas organizativas: o modelo sindical e o modelo asociativo (Shireen Ally). Propoñemos un terceiro modelo, o “tipo híbrido”, no que as traballadoras domésticas se organizan “entre elas” en asociacións e, ao mesmo tempo, estas asociacións están vinculadas ou integradas en sindicatos, o que lles proporciona representación, servizos e contacto con outros/as traballadores/as. En relación con este achado, observamos tamén unha tendencia cara un “sindicalismo emerxente”; isto é, atopamos formas organizativas máis relacionadas cos sindicatos que hai unha década. Un factor explicativo reside na “loita pola gobernanza” tras da vitoria no Congreso da Organización Internacional do Traballo en 2011 sobre “Traballo Decente para as Traballadoras Domésticas”, que implicou unha maior colaboración e confianza entre as traballadoras do fogar organizadas e os sindicatos.
