Resumo: This study analyzes the influence of the family context and the traditional family ideology on women managers’ construction as mothers and as economically active beings in the Portuguese tourism sector. Twenty-four female Portuguese senior managers in hotels and travel businesses were interviewed. Some women acknowledged the existence of a ‘motherhood penalty’. Still, most wanted to have both a family and a career. Practically all interviewees combined several childcare solutions. Despite these arrangements, many experienced work-family conflict. To conclude, Portugal displays both signals of advancements in gender equality and deep inequalities.

Foram entrevistadas 24 mulheres com cargos de topos na hotelaria e indústria de viagens. Apesar de algumas mulheres reconheceram a existência de penalizações devido à maternidade, a maior parte deseja tanto a maternidade como uma carreira. Quase todas as entrevistadas recorrem a diversas estratégias para a conciliação trabalho-família. Porém, a maior parte experiencia conflitos nesta conciliação. Concluindo, o estudo revela tanto sinais de avanços na área da igualdade de género, como sinais de profundas desigualdades.Departamento de Economia, Gestão, Engenharia Industrial e Turismo da Universidade de Aveiro2021-09-19T00:00:00Zjournal articlejournal articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.34624/rtd.v36i2.4638oai:proa.ua.pt:article/4638Journal of Tourism & Development; Vol 36 No 2 (2021); 111-124Revista Turismo & Desenvolvimento; vol. 36 n.º 2 (2021); 111-1242182-14531645-9261reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPenghttps://proa.ua.pt/index.php/rtd/article/view/4638https://doi.org/10.34624/rtd.v36i2.4638https://proa.ua.pt/index.php/rtd/article/view/4638/18753Direitos de Autor (c) 2021 Revista Turismo & Desenvolvimentoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCarvalho, Inês2022-09-26T10:56:28Zoai:proa.ua.pt:article/4638Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T16:05:18.638289Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
