The cry of “Get married women out of the factories!” echoed across the Spanish industrial landscape at the turn of the twentieth century, driven by two intertwined factors. From a societal perspective, women's place was at home, not in factories. On an economic note, concerns arose over women's lower wages displacing men from jobs. This research delves into a case study of a workers’ claim aimed against women. It aims to illuminate the interplay of social demands and gender dynamics in labour history and business operations. Using as a case study a strike among male workers at the Amatller chocolate factory in May 1890, it seeks insights into gender complexities and women's challenges when joining the workforce. Male factory workers sought better conditions but directed their frustrations at women, influenced by prevailing social discourse. Women joined the factory, but portraying them as victors would be an oversimplification. Their presence was restricted, confined to manual tasks, with few opportunities for advancement.

“让已婚妇女走出工厂”的呼声在 20 世纪之交的西班牙工业版图上回荡，由两个相互交织的因素驱动。从社会的角度来看，女性的地位是在家里，而不是在工厂里。在经济方面，人们担心女性的低工资会取代男性失业。本研究深入探讨了一个针对女性的工人索赔的案例研究。它旨在阐明社会需求和性别动态在劳动历史和商业运营中的相互作用。它以 1890 年 5 月阿马特勒巧克力工厂男性工人的罢工为案例研究，寻求对性别复杂性和女性在加入劳动力市场时面临的挑战的见解。男性工厂工人寻求更好的条件，但受到主流社会话语的影响，将他们的不满指向女性。女性加入了工厂，但将她们描绘成胜利者会过于简单化。他们的存在受到限制，仅限于体力劳动，几乎没有晋升的机会。
