Question 6 • MCPSS AL-Grade 6 United States Studies: The Industrial Revolution to the Present - Summer School 2026

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

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

Explanation

In the 1960s, women who entered the workforce commonly worked under male supervisors and managers, since men held most leadership positions. Regular promotion for hard work was not assured, and legal protections against sexual harassment and guaranteed job-protected maternity leave were not yet established as they are today. Therefore, the correct choice is “work for male supervisors and managers.”
