T HERE are two distinct types of legislation applying to women's employment-laws that regulate and laws that prohibit. The regulatory laws are far more important than the prohibitory laws, both in number and in scope. There are also two distinct types of wage-earning women-those to whom labor legislation applies and those to whom it does not apply. The second group of women is about twice as large as the first. In discussing the effects of labor legislation on women's work, therefore, it is important to emphasize that not all laws are alike and that only a minority of wage-earning women are affected by them
