A new U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) study, "Women of Color: Their Employment in the Private Sector," reveals that women of color now comprise 14.5 percent of America's private sector workforce, a major increase from a decade earlier. The employment of each group of women examined African American, Hispanic, Asian and Native American grew during this period. Similarly, more women from all four groups obtained employment as officials and managers, though numbers vary widely by industry.
