Abstract
This study examines Sri Lankan
women's experiences of work and
night shifts in nursing homes and
supermarkets. The study is based
on a sample of 30 associate
professional and semi-skilled
women pursuing jobs as nursing
home workers, care workers,
pharmacy dispensers, customer
service assistants, cashiers and
sales assistants. The views of the
workers were triangulated with
views from their direct
supervisors (i.e., matrons, chief
pharmacists and supervisors).
Semi-structured interviews were
undertaken with all respondents.
