Below are links to the catalogue descriptions and digital copies of interview recordings of women workers, managers and others in various employment sectors. The interviews were almost all undertaken as part of academic projects. Most of the interviewees were either retired or nearing the end of their careers so the interviews are mainly retrospective, although some also include reflections on contemporary matters.
Additional numbered links are given where there is more than one recording of an interviewee.
Extracts of interviews relating to women at work are also available.
