World War II changed both the type of work women did and the volume at which they did it. Five million women entered the workforce between 1940-1945. The gap in the labor force created by departing soldiers meant opportunities for women. In particular, World War II led many women to take jobs in defense plants and factories around the country. These jobs provided unprecedented opportunities to move into occupations previously thought of as exclusive to men, especially the aircraft industry, where a majority of workers were women by 1943.

Slowly, women returned to the labor force “either because of economic convenience, the desire to buy more consumer products, or economic necessity. Other women returned to work simply because they wanted the satisfaction [of working]” (Farm Life). Women began to take new positions that were not in existence when the war began. These jobs “came about from the technological advances made throughout the war” (A Change in Gender Roles).
