Abstract

The article presents the results of a sociological research conducted amongst the predominantly female employees of a textile business in Romanian rural area. The main focus of this research is to answer the question regarding gender relations and gender-oriented economic dependency in the worker’s families – does the augmentation of woman’s economic situation lead to a different statute at home? Does the perception of roles change? The author employs two different research techniques – quantitative and qualitative, in order to obtain a better level of understanding of the gender relations in this specific context. The results show that in spite of their economic emancipation, women do not augment their status at home, still being subjected to patriarchal mentalities.
