Abstract:
The construction of health differs depending on whether one is a man or woman in connection with the social positions occupied, but also depending on everyday representations and interactions. Women are potentially in danger in terms of psycho-social risks due to jobs carried out with the public. They have to overcome different handicaps related to gender: they have to prove, more than men, their investment at work and their skills, which are often considered inferior, and fight to open doors that are closed to them.
