Women office workers, members of the group W.O.W. (Women Office Workers) tell their experiences during a speak out entitled "Women Workers Speak Out" recorded in the fall 1973. From the April 1973 WBAI Folio: "Last fall, women workers gathered together to speak out about their jobs. A packing house worker, a waitress, office workers, household workers, and women in a variety of trades describe their work and the problems they confront each day on the job. Many of these women have become active in the trade union movement and see the organization of non-union women as the priority for working women and the women's movement." Because there is no description on this tape, it is assumed to be part of this speak out.
