Ten Days a ’Grass Widow’ - Forty-eight Hours a Wife: Sexual Division of Labour in Trawlermen’s Households
A strict dichotomy of gender and work roles has long characterized the offshore trawler fishery. Men’s constantly varying work period, about ten days sea time to every forty-eight hours ashore, forces wives to become reluctant matriarchs, a role they must drop when their husbands land. Incongruity of expectations and behaviour is thus built in. Successful adjustment to sea-time roles by both is often dysfunctional to family stability, and to the …

Voices from off Shore: Narratives of Risk and Danger in the Nova Scotian, Deep-Sea Fishery
Fishermen are often regarded as the epitome of Western Individualism. Popular culture is replete with references to the romantic and rugged imagery of the fisher poised, bearded and weather-worn, battling the winds and storms of the open seas. Were it only so.

Nova Scotian Fishing Families Coping with the Fisheries Crisis
The fisheries crisis has severely affected Nova Scotian fishing families. These fishers and their households had developed strategies to cope with the work organization and schedule of the various fisheries prosecuted in this area. Critical reductions in catches of groundfish have led to lay-offs or work reductions, to changes in work organization and to exploitation of other fisheries, some of which previously had been underutilized. This articl…
Work Organization among Nova Scotian Offshore Fishermen
In this article we explore work organization and its relationship to the interdependence of working conditions and job satisfaction among Nova Scotian Offshore Fishermen. Drawing from ethnographic and survey data, we describe and examine the variation of work organization within the fishery. After identifying the factors that contribute to job satisfaction we evaluate a series of hypotheses about how the work situation contributes to job satisfac…
