Abstract

CALANDRON, Sabrina. Senses of work and domestic life organization by polices of the Province of Buenos Aires. Trab. soc. [online]. 2015, n.25, pp.43-57. ISSN 1514-6871.

This article analyzes the characterizations of police activity as a job, describing the perceptions of members of a punctual security force: the Police of the Province of Buenos Aires. Throughout the paper, we analyze the site of the activity of the police through his career. This allows the identification of relevant job characteristics such as economic stability, social security grants and future projections. However, the coexistence of dynamics supported in the police bureaucratic system and those that are inclined towards the personalization of labor relations, are also studied. Finally, conceptions of the family and the logic of moral responsibilities towards it obtained a central place in the development and meaning of work in the police.

Keywords : Police; Work; Family; Domestic Economy.
