# Only about half of women return to their previous jobs, a figure largely unchanged since maternity protection was introduced in the 1970s. # Sixty per cent of women signalled their intention to return to work, but research suggests that two-thirds of those that pledge to return had no intention of doing so (I struggle to reconcile this point with the previous one). It's easy. 40% of women signaled their intention to return to work and failed to. 20% of women signaled their intention to return to work and did. 10% of women did not say they would come back to work, and did not. 30% of women did not signal their intention to return to work, but did. Conclusion: 70% of pregnant women are indecisive.
