Best Answer

During the war, many men had entered the military, and the shortage of workers meant women were offered jobs they previously would not have been- mechanics, welders, airplane builders. When the war ended, so did much of the wartime weapons production. Men were also returning from military service, and employers were required to re-hire them.
