work available in the more “masculine” jobs due to the economic crisis.
Malaga has seen an 18% decrease of men registered on Social Security while only 2% of women have been affected in the past two years. Antonio Herrera, Secretary General of trade union organisation, CCOO, says one of the reasons for this is the dramatic decrease in work available in the more “masculine” jobs due to the economic crisis.He also added that there has been a significant increase in positions such as taking care of the elderly, childcare and cleaning jobs.This is quite a change of pace as it seems the tables have turned, whereby the women are the main breadwinners at the moment. For this reason, CCOO in Malaga have started offering a service to all foreigners to help them with their Social Security registration since some of them find it hard to get jobs that are above board with a written and signed contract.
