Interview data collected in 1988 from 32 women who had worked for Phillips electronics factories in the Netherlands before 1967 are used to explore the shopfloor culture of Dutch girls employed in manufacturing after WWII. Analysis of Social sciences' oral histories shows the importance of mutual support in this culture. Socialization and identification processes are discussed. 19 References. M. Meeks
