Sumario:This article discusses the work-family relationship as experienced by women in domestic services in Brazil based on an analysis of governmental databases as well as semi-structured interviews with domestic workers. The research indicates that female domestic workers accumulate paid and unpaid housework or resort to other arrangements that do not alter the subordination dynamics or the gender norms in the articulation between work and family. Our results suggest that the expansion and enforcement of labor legislation for the occupational category requires policies aimed at socializing and degenderizing the costs of care.
