United States Women's Bureau
The United States Women's Bureau (WB) is an agency of the United States government within the United States Department of Labor. The Women's Bureau works to create parity for women in the labor force by conducting cutting- edge research and policy analysis, to inform and promote policy change, and to increase public awareness and education.
The Director is appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate. He or she is supported by a staff in the national office as well as eleven regional offices.
==History==
The predecessor of the Women's Bureau was the Woman in Industry Service established on July 1, 1918 as a war-time service to employ women. This was the first time the government surveyed women’s employment.
Women's Bureau was established by Congress on June 5, 1920, just two months before women achieved the right to vote, and continues its responsibility to carry out Public Law 66-259; 29 U.S.C. 11-16.29 (1920) Their enabling legislation gives them the duty to formulate policies and standards to promote the welfare of wage-earning women, improve their working conditions, increase their efficiency, and advance their opportunities for profitable employment. It wasn’t until the WB collaborated with the National Consumers League and the Women’s Educational and Industrial Union that the Bureau began to effectively research and advocate for women workers.〔
