摘要：In this work the author shows the concrete social framework of the process of employment of women in Yugoslavia (based on the data for the SR Croatia). Starting from the hypothesis that the employment of women is of great importance for the transformation of their social position, the text stresses that it is necessary to analyze not only quantitative, but also qualitative factors that govern the employment of women. It thus gives the indicators showing the volume and dynamics, and also indicators showing the quality of the (un)employment of women (data on socio-spatial, educational and professional composition, and on composition according to branches of the economy). In the author’s opinion the following factors govern the volume and qualitative dimension of the employment of women, and the fact that they are more exposed to negative selection in employment: the state of employment in general, which cannot fulfil the needs of the total population for employment; the level of technological development, which is one of the main limits to the employment of women in many activities; the structure of the economy of certain regions (it can favourize or select certain groups of the population — for instance women); deviations from normative-value standards in the employment practice (especially a tendency not to employ women — in general, or in more responsible, creative places of work); characteristics of the female working force (professional structure, and also their attitudes, motives, aspirations, values and interests relevant to employment); the degree to which family functions have been socialized, on which depends the quality of the woman’s work and the quality of family and private life.
