Abstract: Abstract Over the past 40 years, industrialized nations have experienced major changes in their labor market characteristics. Of special importance is the steady increase of women’s participation in the paid workforce. In the United States (US), 72.3% of all women aged between 25 and 54 (US Bureau of Labor Statistics, 2009) were in employment, and 59.1% of women aged between 15 and 64 in the European Union (EU) (EUROSTAT, 2009).
