Abstrakt

This article deals with the reconstruction of the processes of introduction and implementation of women's quotas in two Austrian trade unions: A private services blue-collar union and a white-collar union. For investigating this issue 41 guided interviews were conducted. In both unions the gendered division of labour in the family, the male organizational culture and male resistance make the implementation of the quota rule difficult. In the blue-collar union the implementation works less well than in the white-collar union; in particular it is more difficult to find women for exercising the mandates and there is less support from male unionists. The introduction of the women's quota without fundamental discussion and the lower density of works councils in the relevant private services industries can be identified as important reasons for implementation problems in the blue-collar union.
