| Abstract: | In the course of the author's research into protective labour legislation and female workers in the 1920s and 1930s the author came across a number of references, in the archives, in published sources and in personal reminiscences, which discuss the issue of allowing women workers a specified number of days release from paid labour during menstruation. Research would suggest that such practice was common in a number of industries and areas of employment in the Soviet Union during these decades, and, as such, probably presents a unique example in the history of the labour protection of female workers. |
