A vast amount of research on women and work indicates that women
have not gained parity with men in the paid workforce. Workplace
democracy is particularly relevant for women. I employ US national
survey data from 1991 to analyze women's support for worker
control over workplace decision-making. The nature of this support
is hypothesized using four branches of feminist theory. An analysis of
the gender gap in attitudes is performed and then I incorporate
logistic regression to test for cleavages in women's attitudes. The lack
of consistency across the items suggests that these speci®c work issues
are not re¯ective of a larger, generalized predisposition to workplace
democracy. I conclude by considering the relationship between
women and the labor movement. Union-supported worker
participation is most likely to improve women's working conditions.
