Women â€" have â€" always participated to some extent in the labor force, but more often than not, usually only out of sheer economic necâ€" essity and then in the lowest paid and most menial of the service or . manual labor occupations. The numbers involved were relatively few and the participation of women in the Canadian labor force did not increase very rapidly until the beginning of World War II. The increase in the last twenty years has been particularly outstanding and the most important conâ€" tributing factor to this growth has; been the im pressive entry in evergrowing numbers of married women. While the overall participation rate of married women is still much lower than that for single women, married women now constitute the _ fastest growing group in Canada‘s working population. In the past five years, married women have en tered the labor force at an average annual rate of inâ€" crease of 5% per cent compared with increases of only 4.3 per cent for young people of both sexes, age 14 24, and a growth rate of 3.0 per cent for total men and women of all ages. One of the more important factors which accounts for the sharp increase in the number of working women has been the trend of the population away from rural areas into the cities. The greater employment opportunities in the urban environment and the wider variety of available jobs with higher relative pay levels has made work outside the home more attractive. Added to this is the fact that city dwellers normally have a less conservative set of social mores, a lower birth rate and lesser burdens of household duties than people these factors would tend to make city women more likely to seek work outside the home. Another factor which has led to the increased parâ€" ticipation of women, and in particular of married women, in the work force has been the dramatic changes affecting the running and organization of the household. _ Since _ the beginning of the century, all sorts of laborâ€"saving home appliances have been inâ€" vented and their wideâ€"spread use has significantly reduced household chores. There has also been a transfer to factories and foodâ€" processing plants of many activities formerly done in A further factor, is the declining trend in the The review concludes thai number of children born. In â€" hopefully, what is occuring is addition, it appears that in a necessary dialogue from general women are now which a broader and more concentrating their childâ€" equitable working en bearing period into a vironment for women may relatively few years and are emerge. The Times, Thursday, July 5, 1973â€"Page 17 making a reâ€"entry into the labor force as soon as they have had their children. If this trend is maintained, and if more dayâ€"care centres become established and the cost of childâ€"care relatively less expensive â€" all of which appear likely â€" it seems probable that more mothers will be reâ€"entering the labor force as part of the second flow phenomenon which began as a major developâ€" ment in Canada during the 1950‘s. Women in the labor force tend to concentrate in the sector of the economy. More than twoâ€"thirds are emâ€" ployed in clerical and serâ€" vice jobs, and in professional and while these represent some of the fastest growing areas in the employment spectrum, they ,do not constitute the more lucrative occupations. In contrast such traditionally male professions as architecture, engineering, â€" law and medicine, are relatively high paid and this provides an important explanation of the wage differential that exists between men and women. While women in the labor force are better educated at the secondary level â€" more women have completed high school than men â€" not as many _ have university degrees as men, and in the key areas mentioned above, the number of women with degrees is relatively low. likely play a more important role in the labour force â€" expecially at levels of higher responsibility. These include the articulation of women‘s grievances by women‘s movements throughout the western world, government legislation â€" forbidding discrimination in emâ€" ployment practices on the basis of sex, the influx of more highly educated women onto the labor market, and a shortage of supply in many male dominated professions. Few subjects have become as emotionally charged as the place of women in today‘s society and no However, a variety of reasons exist to suggest that pitfalls of socially conâ€" ditioned responses to many of the challenges which have past decade, by the various women‘s movements. Nor does it appear that there is woman‘s position: a wide variety of grievances and objections can be found among the activists, not to mention the indifference and even hostility which many women direct at the very existence of the movement itself. The review concludes that hopefully, what is occuring is a‘ necessary dialogue from which a broader and more equitable working enâ€" vironment for women may
