Two out of three working mothers work more hours than women without children, the AFL-CIO's just-released Ask a Working Woman Survey says. Many women, especially women of color, work nontraditional hours including weekends and nights. Nearly half of African-American women and Latinas work irregular hours. While 40 percent of working mothers responding work different schedules than their mates, nearly half of minority women had different schedules from theirs. Childcare seems essential to get Moms or Dads enough time to come to class. See http://www.aflcio.org > >
