o f family -related duties-not only ca re of the home and the children. bul of doctor visits, school participation. etc. Present economic realities do not allow the luxury of continued conformance to lhat s enario. The majorit y of womcn have 10 work, because their husband can not afford to meet the need ' of the fami ly on their OWn. Many ot her women work because they arc the heads of their hou eholds. Workingwomen entered the work force and continued. in the maJont of case" being full -time homemakers also .
What can be done to preVent women workers from losing their anity and the ir health? hildcare .
pm"ental leave and flextime arc some of the so lutions emp loyers llIust use to adapl the work pl ace to meet the
needs of loday's employee, . especially women workers. But whe n the.e and other mea ure; being studied by co rporations and labo r unions are implemenled . Ihey must be set in pIa e as pan of a proble m that concern, all of u". They must not be held over women'" head, '" somet hing done because they arc somehow unable to cope-beclIlI e they failed a upermoms! For example. Til. New York Tillie repor ted last year that several law firms arc otTering lIexible worki ng hourS, childcarc .lId generou materni ty leave. nul women 'i't'ho have availed themselves of these benefits have oOen discovered Ihey' re left behind when partnerships, choice assignments and money are being handed out. The same siLua lion apparently occur at ot her bu in.sses.
Ir women could go to work knowing their husbands arc hOllle taking care of everyt hing else they would not IIeed any help to succeed in the business world. They wouldn' t be kep t out of executive olllces because of absenteeism while caring for a sick child at home or caring for an elderly pa rcnt Or both! T hey wouldn ' l be penalized for poor performance beca use they are exha usted from tryi "~ to do it a ll . And they wouldn' t be forced to choo 'e betwe.n thei r careerS and being a wife and mother.
If we do not incorporate women into the work force on a more eq ual footi ng, pruressionaUy as well as cco~
nomica lly, U. S. competiliveness will suffer-we wi ll all fccl the consequence . But lhe re is hope. Companie. are implementing good program. to deal wi th the situation. ulbllr un ions a re including these i sue in lheir negotiations . However. it all ,W rt with you. Ifyou're a man . think about what you would do if you were ex pected to handle it alL If you arc a single areer woman. don't look down on your sister because sbe chose to be a mothe r and wi fe .

We pleaded for the preservation and nurturing of technological growlh in this induSlry. Our pleas, along ilh those of others, have gone largely un heeded.

Advancemcnl of HDTV lechnology can have a major impact on aerospace cience. II can further enhance the navigational system and other strategic functions performed by aircraft by benefit ing from Ihc use of significantly improved visual "ala. The development of technological processes associatcd with Ihe H DT V industry has pOlenlia l for f,H- reach ing re,ult, in computer technology and applicnti n, an" in n hOSI of other elec ll'onically dependenl indus-

H DT V hasn't been given lhe priority il deserves. American manufaclurers. broadea lers and Ihe govell1lllCnl have been debating over lech nical issues fo r ,ome lime. Meanwhile. Japan and Europe have gotten off Iu a head la rt which could lead 10 foreign domi nation of the HDTV induslry. If all of Ihe high lechnol gy a 'ociated wilh HDTV we re 10 be dominated by others, our nation could lose more of ils manufacl uring capability and it markets while further compromising the telecommunications and supercomputer c mpelitive edge il un~t: had.
The Uniled lales is already ou t of the business of producing some key components of H DTV-highcapacity memory chips, advanced video tubes. videocas etle recorders and editing equipment. If we don ' t sel our goals on laking leadership of Ihe H DTV industry. we cannOI expecl 10 have a trong domestic economy. Without a Irong domestic economy. il will become more difficult to service Ihe national debt and provide for olher im porIanl needs of Ollr nalion

Railroad Retirement, Social Security Benefits
Employers and employees cove red by the Railroad Ret irement
Act pa y highe r re tireme nt taxes than those covered by the ocial Secu ri t.y Act , so Railroad Re tireme nt benefits remain substantia ll y higher than Soc ial Security benefits. T he following questi ons a nd answer show the diffe rences in Ra ilroad Retirement a nd Soc ial Security benef,t s payable at the c lose of the fisca l year ending September 30, 1 9~8, a well as the difTe rences in age requ irements and the payroll taxes under the two sys tems.
1. How much arc the average Raitroad Retirement and Social Secu rity benefits now being paid to reti red employees and spouses'! T he average age annui lY being paid by the Ra ilroad Re tiremen t Boa rd at the end of fi sca l year 198~ to career ra il emp loyees was $ 1, 130 : for a ll re tired ra il employees, the average was $820. T he average age re tireme nt benefi t being paid under Soc ial Secllli ty was about. $5 15. Spouse benefi ts averaged $340 under Ra il-
30
road Ret irement compared to $255 unde r Sueial Secu rit y. The Rai lroad Reti rement Ac t ab o prov ide, supplemental Ra ilroad Re tiremenl an nllities of be tween $23 and $43. wh ich arc pa yable to empluyees who retire d irectl y from the ind u'-1 ry wit h 25 or more yca r~ of service.
2. Arc the benefits awarded to recent rel,irccs generally grcalcr than the benefits pa ya ble to t hose who retired years ago? Yes . becH lI sc rc· ce nt awards a re based on higher avcr::lgc ea rn ings. For CH reer ra ilroad employees retiring a t the end of fi scal year 1988, regu la r annuit y awa rds averaged about 1.350 a mo nth ; monthly be nefit s awarded to regu larly employed worker, cuvered unde r Social Security averaged about $645 . If spouse bene fi ts arc added , the combi ned bene fi t for the employee and spou ·c would approximate $ 1 ,9 10 under Rail road Ret irement coverage compared to about $970 und e r Social ecurit y coverage. Adding a sup plemenlal ann uit y to the ra il road fami ly' s be ne fil increases a ve rage tota l bener, ts for cu rrent career ra il retirees to about $ t ,935 a month .
3. liow much are the disability hcnclits currently awarded'! Disabled rail road worker> ret iring d irectl y from the ra il road indu, try at the end of fisca l year 1 9~8 were awa rded abo ut $ 1.230 a mon th o n
the average . while uwanJ" for di:s· abled worker~ under Social Sec urity averaged about $520. While hot h the Railruad Retirement and Social Sec urity Acts provide benefits to wo rkers who arc totally d isabled for any regu lar wurk, the Railroad Retirement Act also provide, disabilit y bc nefih to Ca reer employees who arc disabled for work in their regu lar railroad occupat ion.
4. Whalm"e Ihe maximum nmolln l~
payable to recent retirees'! If an employee bega n wurk in 1946, CO Il
tinllo ll ~ l y earned the maximum creditable toward retireme nt bener, ts each year through 19K8 and reti red at age 65. the monthly amount payah lc to that employee and his o r her spouse a of January 1989 is $2,497 under the Rai lroad Re tirement Act and $ 1.348 under the Social Sec ur ity Act. If the employee ret ired at a later age, even higher benefit s co uld be payable. Very few employees earn the maximum amo ll nt creditab le each yea r throughou t their Careers . Ann ua l ea rning' up to 3,600 were c reditable in 1951: while ,lIlnual earnings up to $45,000 were creditable for 1988. Such maximum henefi t, arc payable to relatively few fa milies .
S. Can railroaders retire lit ea rlier ages Ihan workers under Sncial SecU"ity? Railroad employees wi th less than 30 years of se rvice-and lhei r spouses-can receive alll1u it ic>; al age 65 or at ages 62 through 64 wilh Hil early ret irement n:: luction of' up to 20 pe rcent for emp luyees and 25 pe rcent for spouses. These age requirements and carly re tirement re· duct ion ' arc the snmc as und er Soc ia l Security. However. 30-yc",' rai l clllployccs---am.l Ihcir -,pousc!'Jcan receive annuitic!'I as ea rl y as age 60 . Under Soc ial Security a nondisablcd worker Cimllol beg in receiving be nefils unt il age 62 , rCga rd le,s of how long he or she had been work ing . If a 30-yca r rai l employee re tires a l age 62, there i ~ no early re tirement reduction in his o r her annuity: Social Securi ty bell eAts a rc red uced by up to 20 percent fu r reti rement before age 65. For a
IIm w ,IOlJ" NAI.IJUNE 1989
30-year employee re tiring at age 60. only the portion of the annuity approximat ing a Soc ial Security benefit is subject to a 20 perce nt early retirement reduction .
6. Docs Social Security offer any benefits which aren't available under Railroad Retirement? Social Security pay certai n types of bene~t s
which a rcn't available under Ra ilroad Reti rement. For example . Social Security provides children's benefits when an cmployee is disabled . re tired or deceased. The Railroad Retirement Act o nly provides children' s benefits if the employee is deceased. However. the Railroad Retirement Act includes a special minimum guaranty provision which insures railroad fami lies won't rece ive less in mont hl y benefi ts than they would have if rai lroad earnings were covered by Social Security rather than Rail road Re ti rement laws. Thi s guaran ty is ln tended to cover s ituations in which one or more members of a famil y would ot herwise be eligible for a type or Socia l Securit y benefit which isn ' t provided under the Rail road Retirement Act. Therefore , if a retired rail employee has children who would otherwise be eligible for a bene fi t under Social Security, the employee's annui ty would be increased 10 re fl ect what Socia l Security wOllld pay the fa mily. unless t he annuity is already mare tha n that amount.
7. How do Railroad Retirement and Social Securit)' benefits for survivol"s differ? Survivor benefits are generally highe r if payable by the Railroad Re tirement Board rat he r than Social Secun t y. Those awarded by the board a t the end of fi scal year 198810 aged and disabled widows and widowers of railroaders averaged about $525 a month compared to about $480 under Social Security. Both Ihe Railroad Re tirement and Social ecurit y Systems provide a lump-su m deat h benefit. The Ra il road Retirement lump-su m benefit is generally payable onl y if survivor annuities aren't immediately due upon an employee's death . The Social Security lump-sum ben-
tuEW JOURNAL/JUNE t989
efit may be payab le regardless of whether monthly be nefi ts are a lso due. Under Socia l Secu ri ty law the lump-S li m bene fi t is S255, while LInder Rai lroad Retircment the aVc rage benefi t payab le i, about $800 if the employee hall completed 10 years of service before 1975.
T he Social Securi ty lump , urn is, in a ll case" on ly pa yable 10 the widow or widower of the employee. Under Railroad Retirement if the employee had 10 year ' of service before 1975, and wasn't survived by a qual ified widow or widower. the lump sum may be paid to Ihe fun eral home or the payer of the runeral expen,es.
Under cerlain conditions ihe Rai lroad Rctirement System also provides a residua l lump-sum death benefi l which insures a rai lroad fami ly receives at leaSI as much in be nefil , as the employee paid in Railroad Re tirement taxes before 1975 . This benefi t is in effec t a refund of an em ployee's pre- I975 Rail road Ret irement taxes after subtrac tio n of any benefi ts prev ious ly paid 0 11 the bas is of the employee's se rvice. Howeve r, an employee's be nefil' generally exceed taxes within two years: consequently. thi death be nefi t is scldom payable.
8. How do Railroad Retirement and Social Security taxes compare? ln 1989 railroad employees pay the equivalent of Social Securi ty taxes plus an additional 4 .9 percent lax on earni ng' up to $35.700 a year. while the ir employers pay the equivalent of Social Securit y taxes plus additional retirement taxes of 16. 1 percent on employee earnings up to ·35.700 a year. The maximum amount of Railroad Retirement taxes an employee Can pay in 1989 is S5.354.10 compared 10 $3.604.80 under Social Securit y. For rai lroad employers the maximu m annual regular ret irement taxes on an employee's earnings are $9.352.50. Rai lroad employer, also cun'cnlly pay a se parate 26~ccnt-pcr-work
hour tax to finance the Railroad Re ti remen t Supplemental Annui ty Program. ~
CANADIAN LA"OVR REPORT
(Colllil/ lled from P"ge /5)
offshore produc tio n. A s imila r phenomenon i, the explodi ng maquiladora zone in northern Mexico, where approximatel y 300,000 Mexican -expected to grow to a million-are exploited by working long hours in sweatshop conditions for aboul 65 to 70 U. S. cents an hour. Ln Canada certain sectors of ou r cconomy. including fina ncial institU lions and much re tail. go to extraordinary Lengths to prcventthe ir workers from organizing. These and other pmct ices, pursued in the name of competi tiveness. put people last.
Mo re and mOre of the new jobs ofl'ered can be termed " contingent employment." As Audrey Freedman of the Co nference Board eloquentl y a rticu la led in testimony to
a U. . congressio na l committee. contingent employ ment re fers to condit ional and tran sito ry employment relat ions hips. These includ e contract or leased em pl oyees, freelance and self-employed wo rke rs, temporary and part-time workers, and th e conlractjng out of functions s Ll eh as data processing, maintenance. securit y, engineering and design.
E mployers dramat ica ll y reduce. Or even eliminate entirely. their responsibil ity to these groups of workers. T he worke rs themselves lack job security, health a nd pension plans, union represe ntation. and a range of benefits most North America n workers have long taken for gra nted.
