- Summary:
-
This report indicates that although during the last 55 years the ranks of women workers have risen from only one out of five to two out of five of all workers, the profile of the average woman worker has greatly changed from that of a 28-year-old single factory worker or clerk of 1920 to that of a 35-year-old woman of today who may be found in any of a great number of occupations. It is noted that women accounted for nearly three-fifths of the increase in the civilian labor force in the last decade. Statistical profiles for women represent the majority of document and are presented for two characteristics: (1) Personal characteristics--age, marital status, children, education, minority races, and husband income and (2) employment characteristics--which cover worklife patterns, full-time and full-year workers, part-time workers, occupations, unemployment, earnings, working wives' contributions to family income, and family heads. A brief statement on the outlook of women workers is included. (WL)
