This study explores how women seafarers' identities are affected by their work. For a long time seafaring has been a male-dominated profession all over the world. However, due to market factors relating to a shortage of ship officers and to factors relating to their strategic promotion within the labour market, women seafarers have recently drawn more attention. Despite this economic and political trend, there is very little research about women's experience of seafaring, which is why I believe my study on this population is important and can contribute new knowledge to this area of research. The seafaring profession is highly mobile which allows seafarers to regularly move between ship and shore. These two spaces may have different gender norms and values which could pose a number of challenges for women seafarers in managing their identities. This research, therefore, begins by shedding light on the occupational culture of seafaring using the accounts of both male and female seafarers. Within the wider framework of gender identity issues of female workers in male-dominated professions, this study explores how women seafarers' identity management is affected by the occupational culture. The research employs qualitative feminist methods, particularly in-depth interviews, in order to examine the identity management strategies of women seafarers. The analysis then focuses on patterns of identity management strategies: how women changed strategies chronologically as well as multi-dimensionally (e.g. across space as well as time). The project concludes with several suggestions for future research. The findings of this study emphasise the need to increase the employment of women seafarers in the industry in order to improve living conditions of life on board for both male and female seafarers.
