Women and the American Occupational Structure Final Report, Employment and Training Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, 1977 Cohort(s): Mature Women Publisher: U.S. Department of Labor Keyword(s): Children; Earnings; Educational Attainment; Employment; Family Resources; Husbands, Influence; Labor Force Participation; Marital Status; Wives; Work Attachment; Work Attitudes This report explains the labor force participation patterns of American women. The report contains both a literature survey and an empirical analysis of women's labor force participation. Based on data from longitudinal surveys for a statistical sample of mature American women, the general focus of this research is on economic models of female labor force participation. More specifically, the research explores supply and demand conditions related to employment patterns of mature women. The supply conditions pertain to personal attributes of females such as their attitudes, education, ethnicity, and number of children. The demand conditions concern characteristics of the job and labor-environment and include female earnings and general economic conditions of the market place. |
