Resumen
Resumen: La pandemia de la COVID-19 y la crisis generada en todos
los órdenes llevó a indagar el alcance del impacto de género produido
e incorporarlo en la respuesta a una situación que, por sus propias
características, afecta de manera diferente a mujeres y hombres. Esta
investigación incorpora la perspectiva de género al estudio realizado
dentro del sector femenino del llamado trabajo por cuenta propia, teniendo
en cuenta la demografía de las profesiones, el estrés psicosocial en el
entorno laboral y doméstico, también la distribución de las tareas de
cuidados y sus efectos. Todo ello, con el objetivo de defender cambios
más profundos en la organización social del trabajo productivo, para
que la sostenibilidad de la vida y su calidad sean el objetivo primordial
de la economía cubana.
The COVID-19 pandemic and the spawned crisis at all levels led to an inquiry into the extent of the produced gender impact and to incorporate it into the response to a situation that, by its very nature, affects women and men differently. This research incorporates the gender perspective into the study carried out within the female sector of so-called self-employment, taking into account the demographics of the professions, psychosocial stress in the working and domestic environments, as well as the distribution of care tasks and their effects. Every effort was aimed at defending deeper changes in the social organization of productive work, so that life sustainability and quality would be the main objective of Cuban economy.
