Abstract
A Tasmanian unemployment survey revealed that young women face a restricted job spectrum. Despite indicators of a better education, support of family and friends and a higher status employment record, young unemployed females experience significant psychosocial adversity. Role and occupational stereotyping and denial of skills, reinforced by earlier educational limitations, lead to gross disparity in the amount, type and status of work available to young women.
