Women's Occupational Health: Resisting When We Can: Santé des femmes au travail: mobiliser quand c'est encore possible.
The continuing worldwide struggle for decent working conditions is under intense economic, social, and political pressures. Women are particularly affected by these pressures because of their still-tenuous position in the service sector, in lowprestige, low-paid occupations. In addition, their occupational health issues are often overlooked or minimized. Nevertheless, women continue to struggle, as individuals and collectively. This issue describes a number of instances where women in the Québec labor movement have attempted to reconcile equality concerns with protecting their own health. There are successes, failures, and puzzles. Résumé La lutte mondiale pour des conditions de travail décentes subit d'intenses pressions économiques, sociales et politiques. Les femmes sont particulièrement touchées par ces pressions à cause de leur situation encore fragile dans le secteur des services, dans des professions de faible prestige et salaire. De plus, leurs besoins en santé au travail sont souvent minimisés ou ignorés. Toutefois, les femmes continuent à résister, individuellement et collectivement. Ce numéro décrit un certain nombre d'exemples où des travailleuses militantes ont tenté de concilier leurs revendications d'égalité et d'accès au travail avec leur besoin de protéger leur santé.
