Women Crossing Traditional Lines in the Workplace

In 1941, the war machine began to expand due to the necessity of personnel, weapons, equipment, ships, tanks, aircraft, human transport, the United States fell into a massive turmoil in the Second World War. To meet the needs of the two wars, the huge deficits of talented workers are obvious; former housewives and others who are doing "pink color" work at the US workplace volunteered to volunteer I stepped up to fill the empty occupation. A patriot of military status in countries with their problems is called.

Women in America have never become a unified political force, but some have started to solve common problems across ethnic groups and classes. Prior to the Civil War, abolitionist women helped establish the first ethnic American social justice movement. As early as 1848, when representatives of Seneca Falls were seeking education and career, working-class women began fighting with just and equitable wages without sexual harassment in the workplace. Women in these sports sometimes march, but this is just a arrow of their activist's throwing arrow. Personal testimony also played an important role in improving the rights of women. ("Testimony, witness is the greatest desire," the abolitionist Theodor Verd suggested that he can talk about their personal experience from the exiles of South Carolina, Angelina, and Salagurim.The terrorism case of slavery .)

Today, people are increasingly aware of the spread of sexual harassment in the workplace, thanks to women who talk about # MeToo campaigns and personal experiences of disabilities, sexual harassment and sexual assaults they face. However, this imminent issue is not only the workplace where celebrities are employed, but also the problem that women and men are affected in a general working environment. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has revealed that at least 25% of women are experiencing sexual harassment in the workplace. For some reports this number can be up to 85%. Because many women have not reported sexual harassment, it is difficult to accurately judge the number of incidents that have occurred. At the same time, about 10% of men said they received sexual harassment in the workplace.

Among these boundaries, there are slight differences between women who say they are receiving sexual harassment in the workplace. Approximately one fifth of women said that the workplace is balanced between men and women (21%) and has been sexually harassed in the workplace. Even in the workplace led by a woman, the same proportion of work is being done (20%). Of the women who replied that they mainly work with men, this percentage is higher, and 28% of women said they received sexual harassment in the workplace. When asking women whether sexual harassment is a problem in the workplace, there is a bigger gap. About half (49%) of women working in male-dominated workplaces say this is at least a small problem in their work and 15% think that this is a big problem. In contrast, about one-third of women working in gender-balanced workplaces (34%) or women's dominant workplaces (32%) find that sexual harassment is a work problem is showing. About one-tenth of these women said that it is a big problem.
