Women’s Future Role in the Economy

Brian Chiplin and Peter Sloane

Chapter 9 in Sex Discrimination in the Labour Market, 1976, pp 139-142 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract It has been shown in earlier chapters that the current labour market position of women is characterised by marked occupational segregation and substantially lower earnings than men. Neither of these factors can by themselves be taken as indicative of the extent of discrimination in operation against women; they may to a considerable degree merely reflect underlying economic forces and the application of rational free choice by women themselves.
