The 8 hour work day was first enacted as a main goal of labor unions in the states of Illinois, New York and Missouri, but seldom enforced.
1926
Henry Ford was the first to adopt the 40-hour work week as a way of boosting an ailing auto industry. This was warmly received by the AFL because it was seen as a way to check overproduction, while limiting unemployment.
Ø Since the 1970s the number of women in the paid labor force has increased by 112 percent.
Ø The number of working women has grown from 5.3 million in 1900 to 18.4 million in 1950 and to nearly 65 million in 2003 and is projected to increase to 75.5 million by 2010.
Ø Beulah Baily Thull was elected as first woman president of CSEA in 1934.
