FOREWORD
Recognizing that the 30 m i l l i o n women workers today "are not
a u x i l i a r y workers but an i n t e g r a l part of the work f o r c e ,
as
A s s i s t a n t Secretary of Labor Arthur A. F l e t c h e r recently remarked,
the Women's Bureau b e l i e v e s that an examination of the u t i l i z a t i o n
o f t h i s s u b s t a n t i a l p o r t i o n of the human resources of our Nation
i s urgently needed^
F i f t y years ago, when the Women's Bureau was founded, our primary
concern was the e x p l o i t a t i o n of women workers. No longer i s t h i s t r u e .
No longer do we need t o place primary emphasis on the establishment
of safety standards 6T the e l i m i n a t i o n of long working hours and a p p a l l i n g working conditions•
But there are s t i l l serious i n e q u a l i t i e s i n the labor market which
r e s u l t i n the u n d e r u t i l i z a t i o n of women workers. There are s t i l l
b a r r i e r s which deny women the freedom t o prepare f o r and enter employment suited t o t h e i r i n d i v i d u a l i n t e r e s t s and a b i l i t i e s , and t o advance
and achieve r e c o g n i t i o n (monetary or otherwise) t o the f u l l extent of
which they are capable.
L e g i s l a t i o n t o assure wcmen e q u a l i t y of pay and nondiscrimination
i n employment has been passed at the Federal and State l e v e l s . The
Federal Equal Pay Act of 1963^ which was an amendment t o the F a i r
Labor Standards A c t , assures women equal pay f o r equal work. However,
since many employees are not covered under the Federal a c t , 36 States
have enacted equal pay laws, and f i v e others and the D i s t r i c t of
Columbia have f a i r employment p r a c t i c e s laws p r o h i b i t i n g d i s c r i m i n a t i o n
i n pay based on sex. T i t l e V I I of the Federal C i v i l Rights Act of
196^ p r o h i b i t s d i s c r i m i n a t i o n i n employment on the b a s i s of sex.
Twenty-three States and the D i s t r i c t of Columbia have a s i m i l a r p r o h i b i tion.
Implementation of the two Federal statutes has been e f f e c t i v e .
I n v e s t i g a t i o n s under the equal pay p r o v i s i o n s had d i s c l o s e d , by the end
of A p r i l 1970, underpayments of more than $17 m i l l i o n t o more than
50,000 employees during the neaxly 5 years of enforcement. Of a l l comp l a i n t s received i n f i s c a l year I969 by the Equal Employment Opportunity
Commission under t i t l e V I I o f the C i v i l R i ^ t s Act, almost 2 , 7 0 0 , or
about o n e - f i f t h , were concerned w i t h d i s c r i m i n a t i o n on the b a s i s of sex.
Considerable progress has a l s o been made i n p r o v i d i n g equal
opportunities f o r women employed d i r e c t l y by the F e d e r a l Government
o r by Federal c o n t r a c t o r s . As e a r l y as 1923 the C i v i l Service Classi f i c a t i o n Act provided t h a t Federal employees receive equal pay f o r
equal work. D i s c r i m i n a t i o n on the b a s i s o f sex (as w e l l as race, c o l o r ,
r e l i g i o n , or n a t i o n a l o r i g i n ) i n a l l aspects of F e d e r a l employment i s
now p r o h i b i t e d under Executive Order I I U 7 8 , administered by the C i v i l
Service Commission.

DiBcrimination by Federal c o n t r a c t o r and subcontractors i s
prohibited under Executive Order 112U6, as amended by Executive Order
11375, administered by the O f f i c e of Federal Contract Ccmpllance (OFCC)
of the Department of Labor. Sex d i s c r i m i n a t i o n guidelines, s e t t i n g
out i n d e t a i l the regulations governing the lnqplementation o f t h i s
Executive older, vere issued by the OFCC i n June 1970.
Despite these steps forward, there i s a great deal more t o be
acccmplished. The need t o improve voaaen's r e l a t i v e p o s i t i o n i n the
economy i s s t i l l uigent. F a i l u r e t o grant wcmen and g i r l s equal
opportunities i n teims of Job t r a i n i n g , educational programs, occupat i o n a l entrance, advancement, and pay creates severe economic hardship,
even poverty, f o r many women and f o r many f a m i l i e s dependent I n whole
or i n part on a woman's earnings.
I n addition, f a i l u r e t o u t i l i z e f u l l y the t a l e n t s and a b i l i t i e s
of wanen diminishes our total productive e f f o r t , deprives the economy
of woikers needed f o r v i t a l domestic programs, and has a depressing
e f f e c t on the ^ o l e Job s t r u c t u r e .
Occupationally wcmen are more disadvantaged, compared w i t h men,
than they were 30 years ago. I n 1 9 ^ they h e l d 45 percent of a l l
p r o f e s s i o n a l and t e c h n i c a l p o s i t i o n s . I n 1969 they h e l d only 37 percent
of such Jobs. This d e t e r i o r a t i o n i n t h e i r r o l e i n career f i e l d s
r e l a t i v e t o men has occurred despite the increase i n women's share of
t o t a l employment over the same p e r i o d . On the other hand, the proport i o n of women among a l l service workers (except p r i v a t e household) has
increased since I9I1O—rising from 1*0 t o 59 percent.
The b a r r i e r s are s t i l l h i ^ against enqploying women i n professions
other than those t r a d i t i o n a l l y associated w i t h wcmen, and many of the
myths regarding women's a b i l i t y t o h o l d administrative and managerial
p o s i t i o n s s t i l l p r e v a i l . I l l u s t r a t i v e of the i n e q u a l i t i e s wcmen face
i n entering p r o f e s s i o n a l careers i n business and industry are the
differences i n scOarles o f f e r e d t o women and men. Wcmen graduating
from college i n 1970 i n s i x f i e l d s of i n t e r e s t were being o f f e r e d
s t a r t i n g s a l a r i e s from 3 t o 10 percent lower than those o f f e r e d t o men
i n the same f i e l d s .
Many women hold Jobs f a r from commensurate w i t h t h e i r a b i l i t l e B
and educational achievement. For example, i n March I 9 6 9 , I9 percent
of the woridLng wcmen who had completed k years of c o l l e g e were employed
i n nonprofessional Jobs as c l e r i c a l , sales, o r service workers or as
operatives, mainly i n f a c t o r i e s .
The growing share of jobs h e l d by women i n the lower paying
occupations I n recent years i s r e f l e c t e d i n the gap between the median
( h a l f above, h a l f below) earnings of women and men. I n 1957 the
median wage or i a l a i y income of wcmen who worked 35 hours or more a
week f o r 50 t o 52 weeks was 6k percent of t h a t received by men. I n
1968 median earnings of comparably employed women were only 58 percent
o f those received by men.



N

Moreover, more wanen than men experience periods of unemployment
during the year. Unemployment rates of women have heen c o n s i s t e n t l y
h i ^ e r than those of men during the l a s t decade and vere
and 2.8
percent, respectively, i n 1969* Therefore, i t i s not s u i p r i s i n g that
poverty i s more severe among f a m i l i e s headed by women than liy men
workers. An alarming
percent of the f a m i l i e s headed by women
workers of m i n o r i t y races l i v e d i n poverty i n I968, as compared w i t h
16 percent of those headed by male workers of minority races.
The f o l l o w i n g b r i e f summary statements and charts document aspects
of the u n d e r u t i l i z a t i o n of women workers. I t i s our hope that these
h i ^ l i ^ t s on the economic p o s i t i o n of wcmen workers may prove h e l p f u l
i n e f f o r t s t o assure more e f f e c t i v e use of our n a t i o n a l resource of
womanpower.
