Jobs for the Boys … and Girls1

Sally Rice, social affairs correspondent, investigates.

A recent report by the Equal Opportunities Commission, called 'Free to Choose’, says that schools and employers are still recommending some careers only for boys and others only for girls. The government has to take action on this, says the EOC.

At school, boys and girls continue to study subjects that are traditional for their gender, and they continue to get poor careers advice. Employers for some jobs still choose young people because of their gender, not their ability.

For example, less than 3% of men work in childcare in Britain, and only 1% of women work in building, engineering, and plumbing. So what's it like for someone to cross the gender gap at work?
