Is Telecommuting
Unfair To Women # 2 ?
[ send
me this paper ]
In this well-argued 6 page paper, the point is made that tele-commuting does
little more for women than keep them at home-- where they were a century ago.
Women who work from their home office/computer are expected not only to handle
corporate business from 9 - 5, they are also usually expected to take care of
household affairs and even to raise children during the same time. This stands
in contrast with men who cyber-commute but who are not expected to do anything
other than work during the course of the business day. Various other relevant
ethical issues are discussed and it is ultimately concluded that women have very
little to gain in today's workplace. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
