And now? 330 $aThis book, first published in 1941, is concerned to relate the argument for Trade Unionism to the needs of women who work, whether in their homes or outside them. It is, in part, a historical analysis of the inter-war years, and it also prefigures the changes to women's working conditions brought about by the two World Wars. War necessitated the mass employment of women, and Trade Union action had greatly improved the position of the woman war-worker of 1941 compared to a quarter century previously. This invaluable book examines that Trade Union action. 606 $aLabor unions$zGreat Britain 606 $aWomen$xEmployment$zGreat Britain 615 0$aLabor unions 615 0$aWomen$xEmployment 676 $a331.880942 700 $aHamilton$b Mary Agnes$f1884-1966.,$01212806 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910155243903321 996 $aWoman at work$92800748 997 $aUNINA
