Abstract
In recent years, state legislation which establishes working hours for women is being negated [31, 16-17]. For the first 30 years of this century these laws were the major ones placing limitations on the length of the workweek. Study of the economics of labor supply, including both labor force participation and hours of work, has become an important research area since the 1960s. While considerable attention has been paid to economic variables, little effort has been devoted to determining the role of institutional variables. Recognition has been given to a potential role of legislation in determining hours of work, but careful empirical investigation of the nature of the legislative effect has not appeared in the published literature.'
