Justice In The Labor Market For Women According To Age, Education And Work Experience: Southeast Region Of Puerto Rico
[ send me this paper ]
10 pages in length. Women in the workforce of a patriarchal society routinely experience lower wages, worse working conditions and poor child care options. Coupled with the responsibilities of maintaining a home inherently assigned to the female gender and a very volatile labor market, women in these male-dominated global communities are hard-pressed to keep ahead of the game. Women of the southeast region of Puerto Rico are no exception even though they are technically part of the United States: labor equity has yet to drift to the island and replace patriarchal practices. Moreover, an upswing in male unemployment over the past few decades has placed Puerto Rican women in an interesting position: Not only are they more abundant in the labor market, but their working conditions have not improved and now they also face the added struggle of husbands who do not pull their financial weight. As such, the current workforce for women in the southeast region is has become an ill-fated race to close the gap between male and female workers while force to accept inadequate pay, substandard conditions and the virtual absence of child care. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
