Resumo: This study aimed to investigate the union of the domestic workers from João Pessoa city and their collective action against the current context of institutional change in the regulation‟s pattern of their labor rights. To achieve this objective, it was necessary theoretical basis about the labor and its new settings, the sexual division of labor, the labor market in Brazil, and a specific literature about domestic employment, highlighting its history, precarious situation and the actions and policies targeting category. This research was outlined by a qualitative approach whose case study was conducted at the Union of Domestic Workers of João Pessoa. The subjects were, beyond the union president, twelve (12) workers associated and active in the institution. Data collection occurred through semi-structured interviews, document analysis and direct observation that occurred in August and September 2013. Regarding the results of the survey, it was sought to characterize the social and demographic profile of the domestic workers; investigate how works the organization and the structure of the union; how it is mobilized politically and to investigate how to the legislation change influences the political action and the working conditions of the category. The results shows that the profile of the interviewed maids follows the pattern found in Brazil: women, black, poor and poorly educated. Most of them work unregistered, informally, receiving a minimum wage and do not contributing to social security. As regards the organization of the union, one realizes that it is a fight that has dragged on for several years, which counts with numerous important partnerships for it to keep working, such as CUT, the Feminist Movement, and the Black Movement. It is highlighted the importance of SINTRICOM (Union of Construction Workers) for union researched, since it is responsible for enabling all necessary for the operation and maintenance of the union of the domestic structure. With regard to the actions of the union itself, we note that the biggest problem faced by the union is the lack of political awareness on the part of the maids. For most respondents, the union is not just a space for professional representation, but also a space where they feel comfortable, useful, valued and it is an area of continuous learning and fellowship. The domestic workers received favorably and with great expectations the acquired rights from the PEC. Even with all the barriers faced by the union and by category, the respondents believe that working conditions will improve after the adoption of the PEC.
