How Hammock Workshops Operate in Nicaragua
Within each hammock workshop, a division of labor is established, based on the specialization of each artisan. The workshop owner assigns each person a specific task to accomplish at each stage of the production process.
The seamstresses are responsible for weaving the fringes of the hammocks. They perform this work sitting on a chair, outside their home, often in the company of other neighboring seamstresses. The weavers are responsible for weaving the body of the hammock on a loom. Although this is traditionally a man's job, sometimes women take on this task. Finally, the assembler is responsible for assembling the different parts, especially the fringes and the body of the hammock, as well as the bars, wooden decorations, ropes, and rings. These are the three types of workers who make up the staff of hammock workshops.
Did you know?
On July 17th each year, the country celebrates a day full of joy, "El Dia de la alegria" (the Day of Joy): the departure of the last member of the Somoza family. After 46 years of family dictatorship, he fled, taking with him the reserves of the National Bank. This special day is marked by the explosion of firecrackers, the singing of revolutionary songs, and political meetings. It is a moment of celebration where the population expresses its joy and relief, symbolizing the end of an era of oppressive power and the hope for a better future.
