Women were suddenly in demand for work on the land, on transport, in hospitals, and most significantly, in industry and engineering. Women were involved in the vital munitions factories, building ships and doing labor, such as loading and unloading coal. Few types of jobs were not filled by women by the war's end.
During WWI (1914-1918), large numbers of women were recruited into jobs vacated by men who had gone to fight in the war. New jobs were also created as part of the war effort, for example in munitions factories.
