The project goals were to isolate, analyze and minimize barriers to the participation of women in the skilled trades. Brochures and a film aimed at dispelling myths were produced. Employer surveys confirmed that prejudice and ignorance of laws had to be confronted with facts. Surveys of women apprentices and their employers showed a low drop-out rate and high degree of employer satisfaction. Changes were indicated in State Employment and Apprenticeship agencies to eliminate sex-stereotyping and new apprenciceship programs were begun in day care and health occupations. Recommendations: (1) sponsorship of apprenticeship "out-reach" function for women; (2) active enforcement of equal opportunity laws; (3) reassessment of so-called "women's jobs" codes in Dictionary of Occupational Titles; (4) schools opening technical pre-apprenticeship classes to girls; and, (5) unions/employers waiving collective bargaining agreements as they exclude women from apprenticeship application. Forty pages of appendixes include survey forms, questionnaires, and brochures. (Author/AJ)
