Women, work, and trade unions

"This study of workplace unionism deals with working class women - in particular, cleaners and catering workers in the National Health Service - and the ways in which their interests are developed, articulated and represented by trade unions." "In this book, Anne Munro argues that there operates within trade unions an institutional bias which excludes a number of issues specific to women workers. She stresses the importance of the structuring of women's work to an analysis of the role of trade unions in challenging or reproducing inequalities. The book investigates the development of racialized gender roles in employment and the way in which the composition of work results in interests defined by race and gender."--BOOK JACKET.
