Night shift or non-standard work continues to grow throughout the economy (Beers, 2000).

Many of these mothers are obliged to do night shift work. Sectors like manufacturing and public-oriented industries often use shift work to ensure efficient continuous operation and uninterrupted response to the needs of society.

The effects of maternal employment on the young child have been examined for over 50 years.

All of the older women were paid workers or "stipended volunteers" who were employed part time (20 hours a week) in child care, clerical, or other service jobs.
