Question 8 • United States History

A woman who entered the workforce in the 1960s could expect to

Answer
A
receive paid maternity leave without losing her job.
B
be protected from sexual harassment.
C
work for male supervisors and managers.
D
gain regular promotions for hard work.

Explanation

In the 1960s, women commonly worked under male supervisors and managers, since men held most positions of authority in the workplace. Paid maternity leave, protection from sexual harassment, and equal promotion opportunities were not generally guaranteed, so the other choices describe rights or treatment women could not reliably expect.
