In this article we argue that social networks produced in recreational spaces in the workplace are key to workers' employment trajectories. Drawing from a Chilean case study, we argue that employer-organised workplace entertainment activities, which we call formal events, provide a unique opportunity for workers to establish bonds and contacts that challenge tendencies towards homophily (social similarity) in ways that are particularly helpful to groups marginalised by gender and social class. We also show how employee-organised events, on the contrary, which we call informal events, solidify homophily, shoring up pre-existing group solidarities and privileges, negatively affecting conditions of employment and the upward mobility of workers with limited existing social capital and networks.

在工作中建立人际纽带和网络:娱乐空间和阶级和性别成员

在本文中,我们认为在工作场所的娱乐空间中产生的社交网络是工人就业轨迹的关键。从智利的一个案例研究中,我们认为雇主组织的工作场所娱乐活动,我们称之为正式活动,为工人提供了一个独特的机会来建立联系和联系,挑战同质性(社会相似性)的趋势,特别有助于被性别和社会阶层边缘化的群体。相反,我们还展示了员工组织的活动(我们称之为非正式活动)如何巩固同质性,支持先前存在的群体团结和特权,对就业条件和现有社会资本和网络有限的工人的向上流动产生负面影响.
