Description and Table of Contents

Description

The development of better employment opportunities for women in Britain and the rest of Europe is generally accepted as a desirable aim of national and Community level policy. But how far will the environment created by the Single European Market and further steps taken to reach economic and monetary union make this objective easier to achieve? What are the policy implications of the prospects for women's employment during the 1990s? The focus of the book is on the interaction between underlying labour market trends and the intensification of the process of European integration, represented especially by completion of the internal market. The evidence is drawn together and the principal policy implications identified.
