The indeterminacy of time and tasks: Negotiating practices among live-in farm and domestic workers
This article aims to bridge the debate on the overlap of spaces and times of production and reproduction, as developed in studies on dormitory-labour regimes, with the well-established literature on domestic and agricultural work, which has extensively analyzed the live-in arrangement. Drawing on the authors’ long-term qualitative and ethnographic research among migrant workers in the Italian domestic sector (Veneto) and agricultural sector (Sici…
Tides of labour. Forms of exploitation and practices of individual resistance in seasonal tourism industry
This paper investigates seasonal seaside tourism in Eastern Veneto. On one hand, drawing on literature about labour exploitation forms, it examines critical issues and labor standard violations within the sector, focusing on wages, supervision, work rhythms, and segmentation along the lines of gender, migration status, and age. On the other hand, the paper explores individual resistance, particularly through the various exit and quitting strategi…
Exhaustion: Migrant mental health, gendered migration and workplace regime
This article focuses on the mental health of female migrant workers in Italy. The multi‐method study involved a survey of 157 Moldovan migrant women employed in different jobs and 30 semi‐structured interviews with Moldovan female migrant domestic workers. Quantitative analysis demonstrated that Moldovan domestic workers are affected by poor mental health to a greater extent than Moldovan women employed in other jobs, and that the factors most as…
Constructing Mobilities: The Reproduction of Posted Workers' Disposability in the Construction Sector
Posted work is often framed as a business model based on social dumping. Widespread regulatory evasion is imputed to regulation's opacity, firms' predatory practices and trade unions' inability to organise posted workers. Isolation and precariousness channel posted workers' agency into individualised reworking or exit strategies. These perspectives, however insightful, focus either on formal regulations, enforcement actors or host countries' inst…
Essentialism and intersectionality in the selection and recruitment of staff: The devaluation of migrant women's skills in France and Italy
While skilled migration has become one of the most acceptable ways of entering Western European countries, the skills of migrant women with tertiary education continue to be undervalued in labour markets. To understand why these women are confined to the bottom of the employment structure, we argue that it is necessary to analyse how essentialism, based on the intersection of gender and racialization, influenced by colonial imaginaries and global…
Italian doctors’ understandings of work-related health and safety risks among women migrant home care workers
This article presents an exploratory study of how the social construction of risk, including stereotypes of migrant home care workers, as well as the character of official workplace health and safety regulation, may influence the ways in which occupational health risks are identified and managed by doctors. We focus our analysis upon migrant home care workers (HCWs) in Italy, who are exposed to multiple risks of developing physical and mental hea…
Conflicting temporalities and the unsustainability of the Italian model of migrant personal care assistant
In Southern Europe, the migrant‐in‐the‐family model has become a structural component of the elderly care regime. However, home care work is, by its nature, poorly reconcilable with private and family life. In fact, several studies have denounced the limitations on the right to private and family life that these workers suffer. In this article, I use the migrant home care assistants’ experience of conflicting temporalities around the work–life ba…
Young adult migrants’ representation of ethnic, gender and generational disadvantage in Italy
The literature on the division of labour and labour market segmentation has generally stressed that young people and migrants are, for different reasons, the most disadvantaged categories of workers. Faced with these inequalities, numerous studies have investigated how young people represent and understand their social disadvantage. Similar research on migrant workers is very limited, however, especially as regards young migrants. This article ai…
A slow ride towards permanent residency: Legal transitions and the working trajectories of Ukrainian migrants in Italy and Spain
This article analyses the transition from temporary to permanent residency in Italy and Spain. Despite the growing number of permanent residents in Southern European countries, scholars have paid limited attention to the legal transitions that take place in migrants’ lives after regularisation. We show that different regulations regarding permit renewals can account for qualitative differences in immigrants’ permanent residency. The analysis focu…

Health status of female Moldovan migrants to Italy by health literacy level and age group: A descriptive study
The reported prevalence of some diseases was higher among Moldovan migrant women than among Italian resident women. Health literacy was associated with the migrant women's lifestyle and the use of primary health care services, as previously seen for the autochthonous population

International migrations and care provisions for elderly people left behind. The cases of the Republic of Moldova and Romania
International migrations are posing numerous challenges to care systems in both sending and receiving countries. Based on a multi-method research conducted between 2011 and 2013, this article looks at how the care provisions for elderly people are rearranged in two Eastern European countries affected by the care drain phenomenon (the Republic of Moldova and Romania). The author charts and compares how transnational families, but also the other fa…
Ukrainian migrant women’s social remittances: Contents and effects on families left behind
This article examines different forms of Ukrainian migrant women’s social remittances, articulating some results of two ethnographic studies: one focused on the migration of Ukrainian women to Italy, and the other on the social impact of emigration in Ukraine. First, the paper illustrates the patterns of monetary remittance management, which will be defined as a specific form of social remittance, since they are practices shaped by systems of nor…
Las migraciones internacionales y la reorganización de los cuidados. Los casos de la República de Moldavia, Rumanía y Ucrania
En el contexto de los importantes flujos migratorios desde Europa del Este hacia Europa Meridional, en este artículo se presenta un estudio cualitativo realizado en Rumanía, la República de Moldavia y Ucrania en torno a la reorganización de los cuidados que se requieren para afrontar las repercusiones de la ausencia de personas cuidadoras, también conocida como «drenaje de cuidados». En particular, se analiza la reorganización de los cuidados des…
