SUMMARY:

Paid domestic work in Brazil is permeated by social and historical issues, which is why 97% ofworkers are female and most of them are black and poor.Furthermore, in the Brazilian urban space,especially in the big cities, there is an evident fragmentation in terms of race and class, and this populationblack and poor are usually located in environmentally fragile areas and on the outskirts of the city, while thewhite population with higher purchasing power lives mostly in central neighborhoods withinfrastructure.With that in mind, it is possible to assume that most domestic workers travel longdistances between their residences and the houses of bosses, facing obstacles in urban mobility.However, thisis just a part of the problems faced by these workers, which is experienced in the intimate family of the house of theboss is the main challenge to be faced by these women.Therefore, the objective of this work is to mapquantitatively where the maids who work in Aracaju live and qualitatively the violence andresistance they experience in their work.To address the broader issues linked to the first point, it wasdata collection was carried out at Casa da Doméstica and at the Union of Sergipe maids, which made it possible toperform a territorial analysis of where these maids live and with data from the 2010 IBGE Demographic Censusit was also possible to analyze the socioeconomic data that these locations have.The methodology to achievethe second purpose was to carry out interviews with six domestic workers, fundamental to give morebasis for the theoretical information collected bibliographically, in addition to expanding and bringing up new questions,that is why their reports are distributed throughout the dissertation, covering different themes.That said,This dissertation begins by presenting the history of domestic work in our country, emphasizing the difference betweenwhite and black women, and how the domestic unions in Brazil and Sergipe acted in the struggle forachievement of their labor rights.It also approaches the formation of the urban space showing how thesocial inequality is established, mainly in Greater Aracaju, and as the capital represents a centralityto the state influencing the migration of women in search of domestic work.And finally, the study concludeswith the territorial analysis showing how the housing of these workers are in poorer regions, anddisjointed from the urban fabric, making commuting to work difficult.
