美國一項研究顯示,如今女性在職場中的地位可能有所提高,但在家里,她們的事業(yè)相比于丈夫而言仍處于次要地位。當(dāng)夫妻雙方的工作時間都很長的情況下,女方辭去工作的可能性更大。
Researcher Youngjoo Cha, from Cornell University, found that working women with a husband who worked 50 hours or more a week found themselves still doing most of the housework and the care giving and were more likely to end up quitting their job.
康奈爾大學(xué)的研究人員查英珠發(fā)現(xiàn),對于丈夫每周工作時間超過50個小時的職業(yè)女性而言,她們需要承擔(dān)大部分家務(wù)和照顧家人的任務(wù),所以更有可能辭掉工作。
An analysis of 8,484 professional workers and 17,648 nonprofessionals from dual-earner families showed that if women had a husband who worked 60 hours or more per week it increased the woman's odds of quitting her paid job by 42 percent.
