Abstract

Census and Current Population Survey data from 1960–1990 are used to illustrate the slow downward trend in occupational sex segregation. With a view towards predicting future changes in segregation, various theoretical approaches to explaining the prevalence of sex segregation are discussed, and the indeterminate effects on sex segregation of various workforce policies are stressed.
