Displacement of Women Workers After World War II

Posted 09-08-2008 at 12:52 PM by Stan Smith
During WW2, substantial numbers of women workers were employed in factory jobs to replace men who were in the military. The intent, however, was that after the War, the men would return to those jobs and women would go back to traditional pursuits. There was a notable drop in female workforce participation after the War, but thereafter female participation rose for the rest of the 20th century. This brief clip made during the War illustrates the intended displacement.
