This study investigates how gender, power and education affect how preventative measures against threats and violence as well as conflict management are discussed and used among care workers in specialized youth residencies in Sweden. Semi-structured interviews were held with fifteen care workers which were later thematically analyzed using hegemonic masculinity, total institutions and stigma as a theoretical framework. Our findings show that there are multiple hidden gendered practices. The use of physical measures against clients is constructed as inevitable, and that male care workers are most important in conflict management. By having the strength to physically overpower their clients. They are also framed as ideal with their relational advantage to the all-male youth group. Women instead are seen as a deviation from the norm, and a group that must be protected and kept away from dangerous situations. There is also depicted an experience of disorganization and distrust among care workers. Due to perceived poor choices in recruiting and high turnover among chief positions. Where choices for recruiting are based on nepotism and bias for men. We conclude that this removes agency from women in the greater workgroup. We also find that there is a great need for further training in conflict management for care workers as well as higher standards for the recruiting of care workers.
