Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. What was it like to be involved in the heady days of 'secondwave' feminism in Australia, when the role of women at home and at work changeddecisively? Iola Mathews was one of the founders of the Women's ElectoralLobby, a journalist at The Age, andlater a leading ACTU advocate for women workers during the 'Accord' with theHawke-Keating Government. She was one of the first generation of women tryingto 'have it all' with a career and children.In this honest and revealing memoir, she takes us inside theday-to-day groundwork required to bring about reforms in areas like affirmativeaction, equal pay, superannuation, childcare, parental leave and work-familyissues. This is an important record of a pivotal time for women in Australia'shistory. Iola brings wisdom and experience to it, reflecting on where we aretoday, with suggestions for further reform. It's a vital source for policymakers and all those interested in women, work and families. 'Iola Mathews has written a fascinating insideraccount of how she battled for major reforms for women, especially during hertime at the ACTU, where she won landmark cases on parental leave and wagejustice for child care and clerical workers. It is so important to know thestories behind these historic victories.' Anne Summers'Iola'sstory shows what can be achieved when passionate people commit to changing therules and fighting for fairness. Her story shows the best qualities of theunion movement people working to make life better for others and to pursueequality and fairness. A great story of a moment of immense change for working women in Australia, and of the people in the movement who made that change possible.'
