This week: A Man's Best Friend?
There are over 2 million secretaries in Britain. Almost all of them are women; almost all of their bosses are men. Very few of the bosses have ever been secretaries; very few of the secretaries will ever be bosses. While men look for jobs with good prospects, good salaries and job satisfaction, most women are destined for monotonous jobs with little chance of getting to the top.
Jeanne La Chard looks at the role of the secretary in the commercial world; and in the studio Desmond Wilcox discusses with secretaries and bosses why it's always seemed a dead-end and almost exclusively female job.
