Barriers to advancement for women holding blue-collar jobs are discussed, with special emphasis on women in the basic steel industry. These barriers include the existence of seniority policies, perceptions of opportunities, availability of relevant experience, and the assignment of women to lower-level jobs that are not on the major line of advancement. Internal barriers, such as physical strength and women's motivation and capacity for blue-collar work, are viewed as far less significant than the external impediments. Prospects for the future are considered
