Rebroadcast 4: Episode 12 Working 9 to 5

  • Resumen

  • In January of 2020, for only the second time in the history of American labor statistics, women outnumbered men in the American workforce - a headline-making milestone. At the same time, however, another rare but significant story was developing - one that would ultimately lead to the worst job-losses among women in the history of our country.  The pandemic hit female-dominated industries the hardest: Hospitality, education, health care, and retail. By April of 2020, the pandemic had caused 4.2 million women to exit the labor force. And even as there was a slight rebound in early summer of 2020, losses continued to chip away at any gains made as more women excited the labor force to be caregivers of young children. By early spring of 2021, there was still a 2 million job deficit among women in the labor force. In a speech in April of 2021, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said, "Our policymaking has not accounted for the fact that people’s work lives and their personal lives are inextricably linked, and if one suffers so does the other." What can we learn about the real cost of personal and family labor by reflecting on how this pandemic-fueled recession disproportionately affected women?  Guests:  Dr. Sucharita Sinha Mukherjee, Professor of Economics, CSB/SJU Chef Madelyn Adamski, Community Member and Small Business Start-Up Show Notes: Report: Great Recession, great recovery?
