This chapter introduces theoretical and empirical perspectives on the gendering of work organisations, working conditions, and work relations, including health and safety at work. It discusses why gendered norms at work continue to be an important field of study and why Sweden is an interesting case for exploring the gendering of labour markets and jobs. In particular, the chapter discusses how the gendering of work organisations and jobs in health and social care have consequences for women working in these sectors. The chapter also presents the organisation of this volume and the contribution of each of its chapters.
