Abstract
This paper deals with homeworking as a form of labout organization within the capitalist production process and relates it to the segregated labour market and the sexual divisioii of labour ill households. It reviews the various attempts in Britain to legislate reform in the wages and conditions of homeworking and discusses the attitudes of trade unions towards homework and policies towards organizatioln; parallels are drawn with other forms of casualized labour. Evidence from research into homeworkers' attitudes and experience of trade unionism is analysed in terms of the ambiguities and contradictions of waged working in the home.
