Women in the Australian Workforce : A 10 page paper in
which the writer provides an overview of the problem and
research surrounding the issue of NESB. Critics have suggested

myths related to their lack of skills and their long-term impacts
on the job market. Bibliography lists 3 sources. Nesb.wps
