Resumo: This study aims to examine the identities constructed in the relations between domestic workers and employers from an empirical study in the city of Goiania. The research is justified by the historical importance that domestic work takes in Brazil and the weight of this occupation in the female labor force. The perspective used was that of intersectionality in an attempt to articulate the identity studies from the perspectives of symbolic interactionism, cultural studies and black feminism theory. This goal is guided by the assumption that domestic service is based on relationships that involve a complex connection between differences and inequalities of class, race and gender, which, according to the context, forge identities more or less stable. It was fundamental for this work using the concept of difference, as an analytical category, which increased the relational aspect and non-essentialism of the identities, allowing a glimpse not only the oppression and subordination, but also possibilities for changes, even between the clouds of inequalities. We interviewed 14 women, seven domestic workers and seven mistresses, with the aid of a semi-structured guide. The results revealed the connection between class, race and gender in domestic work, with particular emphasis on large class inequality.
