Abstract
Domestic workers in South Africa have historically endured a great deal of
inequalities, as a direct result of their role as woman within the traditional patriarchal
family structure and as a result of their socialisation process. This dissertation sets out
to understand the socialisation process that young girls undergo within a traditional
African family that leads them to domestic employment. The aim is to conduct a
sociological analysis of domestic workers. This study seeks to understand the impact
of the socialisation process on the African female in society.
