The present article examines the meaning of work in relation to gender. For this purpose, it initially proceeds to a brief overview of important sociological studies on the question of the meaning of work, having Goldthorpe and Lockwood’s work orientation theory at their core. The text then proceeds to the critical examination of this theory, based on interviews of women engaged in various occupations at the Hellenic Public Power Corporation mines at the Factory of Megalopolis.
