ESSENTIAL WORK
POSITION OF WOMEN. SAME PROTECTION AS MEN. (By Telegraph—Press Association.) WELLINGTON, This Day. Women who are directed by district manpower officers from their ordinary jobs into more essential work are entitled to get their jobs back after the war. This was made clear by an official of the National Service Department today when the question was raised as to the rights of women and girls when they were transferred to war work. He said they received the same protection as men under the Occupational Re-establishment Regulations. Any person directed into essential work by a manpower officer is entitled to his job back after the war just as if he had gone into the armed forces. That applies to females as well as to males.
