Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Preliminary Report of a Survey of Wages, Hours, and Conditions of Work of the Women in Industry in Atlanta, Georgia: November, 1920
The data were taken, in all cases where it was possible, from two weekly pay-roll periods, one in the fall of 1919, the other in the spring of 1920. In the case of seasonal industries the effort was made to take one week in the busy season and one in the slack.
The investigation was accompanied by a number of difficulties due to the great variety, and in some cases the absence, of pay - roll records. In a few cases in; which occupations and rates of pay were not a matter of record, these were given orally by managers.
