Description
In the late 1970s, as the women's movement was fracturing, trade union women put forward a new agenda to bring feminists and women workers together. The onepage,16-clause Working Women's Charter covered ... the right to work; equal pay for work of equal value; an end to discrimination at work; better conditions, family leave, flexible work arrangements; free, quality childcare; reproductive rights... and more. Challenged by patriarchal union traditions, the women worked hard to win union support for their demands.
