Home Women in the Workplace Can Create Positive Impact on Organizational Success The presence of women in the workplace is becoming felt more and more. They are making inroads into many professions that are the domains of male employees. Photo by designbyfront Many countries have enacted legislation that protects the position of female employees. An example of this is the Equal Opportunity for Women in the Workplace Act (that have legal effects in many Commonwealth countries). Your Strategic HRM Planning Must Take Women's Role into Consideration Acceptance of the role of women is yet to improve in some countries. In spite of this, it is clear that female employees have their special place in organizations. Take this into consideration when preparing your strategic plan. Reasons for the Growing Role of Women in the Workplace These include: More and more women are becoming highly educated and highly skilled. Improved child-care facilities provide invaluable help to working mothers. There are organizations that make available part-time jobs or flexi-working hours.

Tweet Working Girl: A History of Women in the Workplace A look at the history of women in the workplace shows great progress. But experts say they have miles to go before overcoming the many problems women in the workplace face. By Kristina Cowan Sandra Day O'Connor-the first woman named to the U.S. Supreme Court-graduated third in her class from Stanford Law School in 1952. According to the Supreme Court Historical Society, when Sandra Day O'Connor pursued a job as a lawyer, she faced intense discrimination against women in the workplace and was repeatedly rebuffed by firms that wouldn't hire women. But Sandra Day O-Connor did get an offer to work as a legal secretary Women have come a long way, looking back at the beginning history of women in the workplace. NALP, The Association for Legal Career Professionals, says 45 percent of law firm associates are women. Women enroll in college more than men, and their workforce numbers have improved. Mark Penn writes in his book "Microtrends" that "While women dominated first in teaching and nursing, their upward mobility has led to a new tier of professional success beyond those careers. ... As women everywhere have entered the workforce and gotten more education, a whole new set of professional jobs is opening up to them." Penn says "women are on the verge of taking over word-based professions, like journalism, law, marketing, and communications." But despite the rising number of women in the workplace and America's offices and classrooms, there are still problems. Women in the workplace are still underrepresented in professions involving math and science, and a gender pay gap remains.

Strober Next AMONG THE MANY remarkable upheavals of the 20th century, the huge increase in women's employment stands out. The shift of women to paid labor has led to a widespread transformation of the traditional rules and practices of daily life, not only at workplaces, but in families. As work and family changed, there were reverberations throughout society. The roles women play today would be unrecognizable to our forebears of 100 years ago. Still, for all the change, the revolution remains incomplete. The arithmetic is simpleif women's jobs require 30, 40 or more hours a week, they cannot spend those same hours caring for their families. Society has not focused on the need to provide alternative types of care, particularly for children and the elderly, during the time that caregivers are employed. To finish the revolulion, new institutions and new arrangements are in order.

Monday February 16, 2009 zSB(3,3) Searching for a silver lining in this storm cloud of a recession? How about equality for women in the workplace? That's what all these job cuts are leading to. But Boston Globe columnist Ellen Goodman writes that this version of 'equality' isn't quite what women were looking for: In the winter of our economic discontent, women now hold more than 49 percent of jobs on the nation's payrolls. If we cross the 50 percent line...it will be because men are losing their jobs even faster than women. This dubious equality is in large part an ongoing tale of two economies. Men tend to work in manufacturing and construction, areas that were the hardest and first hit. Women tend to work in jobs such as health care and education that haven't (yet) been as affected. In the past year, eight out of 10 pink slips went to men. The unemployment rate for women is bad enough at 6.2 percent, up 2 percent since 2007. But the unemployment rate for men is 7.6 percent, up three points. Add to that the fact that more men stop looking for jobs. You not only have a near-equal number of women in the work force, you have a lot of women in formerly two-earner families who've become the breadwinners.
