A study released on the beginning of this month by the ALF- CLO postulates that working women states that they are more worried about the rising cost of health care. As they try to focus their pay on the cost of living and dwindling retirement benefits.
Karen Nussbaum, director of Working America, (an affiliate of the AFL-CIO that advocates for affordable health care, retirement benefits and other job-related issues for union and nonunion workers) asserts that working women are in a state of utter desperation ‘about how hard it is to keep things together‘, they are dwindling between health insurance and their house.
The report concluded that the priority of women have changed from equality of wages to health care. Higher education costs, jobs going overseas and employment benefits are other key issues among working women. The survey also showed concern for corporate accountability, skyrocketing CEO pay and the retirement benefits of workers whose companies file for bankruptcy.
