Question

How permant were women’s s advances in the wartime workplace?

Answer 1

Women returned to their prewar roles when the war ended, but attitudes had changed towards women's abilities to be equal in the work place for ever. Women earned the respect of enough men who employed workforces to be able to show their equal strengths. The boundaries had been breached by women and they would never have to feel they were unable to compete with men again. Equality legislation took longer to be put in place protecting women's equality in the workplace but was inevitable. after the 2nd World War. Today in 2010 men are still payed more than their equivalent female worker in the UK but it is now only a matter of time before that ridiculous situation is redressed. In doing so men will also be able to enjoy the equality of enjoying the wage of fairly paid partner.
