Abstract

This article analyses the relationship between employment in ethnic niches and socio-occupational mobility among Polish immigrants residing in the Community of Madrid. Based on survey data and in-depth interviews, the study combines quantitative and qualitative methods. The data shows that both Polish males and females are concentrated in two specific ethnic niches: construction and domestic service, respectively. In this context, socio-occupational upgrading is heavily conditioned by gender and depends on the allocation of productive and reproductive roles among men and women within households, as well as on the opportunity structures available within each ethnic niche.
