Ethics Beyond the Rule

Abstract

Employed long term in precarity, construction workers have to endure many forms of humiliation: lies, verbal aggression, taunts, racist nicknames or insults, and so on. This humiliation acts as both cause and effect of the inferior job status of those targeted, and serves to remind them of the threat that accompanies precarity. Although they rarely confront their employers directly, construction workers maintain an invisible resistance that takes the form of withdrawals and defections.
