Popis: One of the most prominent changes in the labour market over the last five decades has been the increase in women’s participation in paid employment. In New Zealand and overseas, increasing numbers of women have entered the labour market and have been working increasingly longer hours in paid employment. For example, while only 28.4% of New Zealand women aged 15–64 were employed full-time in 1951, by 2001 this proportion had increased to 56.4% (Johnston, 2005).
