Working in Fishing Industry' data-article-id='2360'><script src='//news-app-staging.herokuapp.com/javascripts/getscripts.js'></script><link rel='stylesheet'

workers are men.</span> <span data-start-time='8271' data-end-time='20542'>Yet a recent study found that women are responsible for a substantial part of the world’s fishing industry.</span> <span data-start-time='20542' data-end-time='27646'>The study suggests that their work in fisheries is changing.</span> <span data-start-time='27646' data-end-time='33021'>Women have jobs processing and marketing seafood.</span> <span data-start-time='33021' data-end-time='38500'>They also collect clams and other shellfish.</span> <span data-start-time='38500' data-end-time='48708'>Sara Skamser has worked in and around commercial fishing for much of her adult life.</span> <span data-start-time='48708' data-end-time='60375'>When she was in her early twenties, Skamser started earning money by fishing and crabbing along the coast of Oregon.</span> <span data-start-time='60375' data-end-time='69438'>Eventually, she wanted to work on bigger fishing boats to earn more money.</span> <span data-start-time='69438' data-end-time='76667'>But the operators of those boats never offered her a job.</span> <span data-start-time='76667' data-end-time='87979'>She said they would all tell her “no”, and say things like, ‘I know you could do the job, and you're probably stronger than me.</span> <span data-start-time='87979' data-end-time='91688'>But I don't think my wife would like it.’</span> <span data-start-time='91688' data-end-time='99688'>Others would say, ‘I would feel terrible if you got hurt on my boat.’</span> <span data-start-time='99688' data-end-time='107896'>Skamser said she received rejections like these in the early 1980s.</span> <span data-start-time='107896' data-end-time='122979'>Today, women hold fewer than four percent of the commercial fishery permits approved by state governments in the northwestern United States.</span> <span data-start-time='122979' data-end-time='129396'>Gender inequality is also an issue in other countries.</span> <span data-start-time='129396' data-end-time='143000'>In Mexico, Peru, Senegal and Vietnam, four percent or fewer of the workers on fishing boats are women.</span> <span data-start-time='143000' data-end-time='150021'>However, new research suggests that things are beginning to change.</span> </p></div><div class='control-buttons-sticky' style='display:none;'><div
