COLUMBUS,Ohio — Many of the women who have joined the American workforce since the 1970s have the computer revolution to thank,according to a new study.
  A researcher Dr.Weinberg at Ohio State University estimated that increased computer use in the workplace explains about 55 percent of the increase in the demand for women workers since the mid-1970s.Many of the new jobs are in blue-collar industries.
"Computers have opened up a lot of job opportunities for women that weren't available before," said Bruce Weinberg,author of the study and assistant professor of economics at Ohio State University.
  "Many blue-collar jobs that once emphasized strength and physical skill are now done by computers,and can be done easily by women with the right skills."
He found that the percentage of Americans' total work hours that were contributed by women grew from 35 percent in 1975 to 40 percent in 1984 and 42 percent in 1993.During that time,use of computers also jumped,from 26 percent in 1984 to 49 percent in 1993.
There's a definite connection between this growth in number of women employed and growth of computer use in the workplace,Weinberg said.In fact,the analysis showed women were more likely than men to use computers on the job -- 45 percent more likely in 1984 and 33 percent more likely in 1993.
  "It's significant that the industries and occupations in which computer use increased the most also experienced the greatest increase in the employment of women," Weinberg said.
根据一项新的研究表明,许多妇女已加入美国劳动力自从20世纪70年代,这应该感谢于计算机革命.
在俄亥俄州立大学的研究员温伯格估计,在工作场所的增加使用电脑的解释20世纪70年代中期以来,对女工的需求增加约55%.许多新的就业机会是在蓝领行业.
“电脑已经为妇女创造了大量的以前没有的就业机会.”布鲁斯·温伯格说.这项研究的作者,俄亥俄州立大学经济学助理教授.
“现在,许多蓝领的工作,一旦强调体力和物理技能是由计算机完成,并且妇女可以通过正确的技能容易的完成.”
他发现,美国人的总工作时数的百分比由妇女贡献从1975年的35%增长到40%,在1984年和1993年的42%.在这段时间内,使用电脑也猛增,从1984年的26%到49%,在1993年.
温伯格说,这在妇女就业和在工作场所使用电脑的增长数的增长之间有一个明确的联系.事实上,分析显示,女性比男性在工作中更有可能使用电脑 ———1984年, 45%更可能;1993年,33%更可能.
温伯格说,"在使用电脑的行业和职业这是显著增加,也经历了在妇女就业增幅最大的."
