الوصف

Women Workers in Seven Professions is a 1914 collection edited for the Studies Committee of the Fabian Women’s Group, examining the economic conditions and prospects of women in seven major occupational fields. Bringing together first-hand evidence from within the professions, the book looks closely at teaching, medicine (including dentistry), nursing, women’s roles in public health as sanitary inspectors and health visitors, women in the civil service, women clerks and secretaries, and acting as a profession. The contributors address training requirements, pay, working conditions, and barriers such as unequal remuneration, restrictions connected with marriage, and limited access to higher status. Throughout, the essays aim to help women consider career choices while clarifying how professional and social change can expand women’s economic independence and opportunities.

معاينة

The present economic position of women bristles with anomalies. It is the outcome of long ages of semi−serfdom, when women toiled continuously to produce wealth, which, if they were married, they could enjoy only at the good pleasure of their lords,—ages when the work of most women was conditioned and subordinated by male dominance. Yet in those days the working housewife commanded the consideration always conceded to a bread−winner—even when dependent. In modern times women's economic position has been undermined by the helpless dependence engendered amongst the well−to−do by “parasitism” resulting from nineteenth−century luxury—to quote the striking word of Olive Schreiner. Similarly, dependence has been forced upon large sections of women−folk amongst the manual workers by the loss of their hold upon land and by the decay of home industries.
