11980 arbejdede 54 % kvinder med børn, men — og dette er utvivlsomt en følge af mangelen på vuggestuer og børnehaver — kun 7 % kvinder med børn under 5 år arbejdede på fuld tid, og 23 % arbejdede på deltid.
In considering this question, account should be taken of the high proportion of women in employment; in 1980, 54% of women with dependent children were working, but—and this is no doubt due to the lack of nursery facilities—only 7% of mothers with a child under the age of five were working full-time while 23% were working part-time.
