Mainstreaming Gender Standards in Collective Bargaining

Title: Mainstreaming Gender Standards in Collective Bargaining
Creator: COSATU
Date Issued: 2005
Description: The apartheid system and capitalism used the patriarchal nature of the South African society through the sexual division of labour and divided the labour force on the grounds of class, race and gender to exploit them for cheap labour to maximize their profits. They exploited the notion of men as the head of the family to force men to become migrant labourers and disregarded the reproductive and domestic role of women.
