This research had the objective of analyzing the configuration of the sexual division of labor in the home / manufacturing mix of the city of Santa Cruz do Capibaribe / PE. I used methodology with quantitative-qualitative approach and its objectives are defined as descriptive and analytical. I used the techniques of participant observation of the work, semi-structured interviews, field diary and questionnaire to collect socioeconomic data and about the production process. The study adopts as the main concept the sexual division of labor that seeks to show the naturalization and hierarchy of roles as socially constructed and changeable elements, as well as evidence the configuration of the power relations of men and women in the universe of work in the house mix / Manufacture. The results showed with regard to the age of the couples it was noticed that the ages of the women vary, being one of 29, two of 34 and one of 44 years, already in relation to the men were verified that they are in the age group of 32 to 37. The data show that women interviewed have almost the same level of education as men. However, the highest and lowest levels of schooling were found among men. Regarding the remuneration, a difference can be observed between the respondents 'and respondents' answers, some of them do not know how much they receive or how much they contribute to the household expenses, leaving between the lines that their income, what they spend with themselves and the Expenses for the maintenance of the family are limited to one thing only. The spatial configurations that house the mix house / manufacture diminish the privacy character of the families. The place to live was also the place to work because of the economic and social circumstances that settled in the region. For males and females this transformation brought diverse consequences. In the home / manufacturing mix the non-hierarchy of tasks and work activities may be due to the type of organization of family and home-based microenterprises, which does not mean that women and men have equal conditions. The workforce used in the production process of the home / manufacturing mix involves the couple as well as their children and other employees. Of these, some are relatives in first and second degree, thus reinforcing the character of family-based economic production. It was possible to notice that 60% of the contracted workers are women, which confirms the predominance of the female labor force in the clothing sector. It is clear that the mix house / manufacturing invades the time and space of the workers, especially of the members of the family, every moment is time to work. It is hoped that the results of the research may be appropriated by other researchers and researchers as well as by the women of the South in their struggle to overcome inequality.
