Dual Careers, Volume 2: A Longitudinal Study of the Labor Market Experience of Women Washington DC: US GPO, 1973 Cohort(s): Mature Women Publisher: U.S. Government Printing Office Keyword(s): Family Influences; Health Factors; Job Satisfaction; Marital Status; Mobility, Job; Sex Roles; Wages; Wives Data from the first three stages of the study of 5,083 women who were 30 to 44 in 1967 are used to determine the labor market experience of women. How marital status, the number and ages of children present in the home, health attitudes and physical condition influence women's employment is discussed. Differences in job status are then examined through changes from 1967 to 1969 in rate of pay, job satisfaction, and employer. Correlates of interfirm movement are also investigated, as well as some consequences of job changing. Changing employers, as a rule, appears to be associated with a higher rate of pay and a higher degree of job satisfaction, and, among white women, a change in marital status. |
