Women Are Back On The Job

By Tami Luhby


NEW YORK -- Women are finding their way back into the workforce.

The economic upswing had until recently been a "hecovery," but the revival is now becoming more balanced between the genders. The number of women employees has jumped by 300,000 in the past six months, nearly the same amount as men. And in September, men and women each saw a job gain of 57,000.
