The impact of the increased proportion of women in pharmacy is discussed, and two leadership positions for which part-time work schedules were implemented are described. Issues associated with the increased representation of women include pharmacist shortages, loss of future leaders, decreased staff productivity related to inadequate day-care services, and a reduced earning potential of pharmacists. Many of these problems can be addressed by altering benefit packages and work schedules to enable employees to raise children while continuing to work. Specific strategies include legislation, day-care programs, flex time and flex scheduling, telecommuting, and the creation of alternative work schedules or permanent part-time positions. At the University of Michigan, a part-time position that combines faculty and clinical responsibilities has been in place since 1988. At The Washington Hospital Center, one of the three assistant director of pharmacy positions is part-time. The women in both positions have met or exceeded job performance requirements while raising a family. Issues raised by the increasing number of female pharmacists must be addressed by the profession. Part-time work schedules are one strategy for enabling female pharmacists to meet both their family and career responsibilities.
文中讨论了药学领域女性比例增加所带来的影响，并描述了两个实施兼职工作安排的领导职位。与女性代表比例增加相关的问题包括药剂师短缺、未来领导者的流失、因日托服务不足导致员工生产力下降以及药剂师收入潜力降低。通过改变福利套餐和工作安排，使员工能够在继续工作的同时抚养孩子，可以解决这些问题中的许多问题。具体策略包括立法、日托项目、弹性工作时间和弹性排班、远程办公以及制定替代工作时间表或设立长期兼职岗位。自1988年以来，密歇根大学一直设有一个结合教师和临床职责的兼职岗位。在华盛顿医院中心，药剂科三名助理主任职位中有一个是兼职的。担任这两个职位的女性在抚养家庭的同时，都达到或超过了工作绩效要求。药学行业必须解决女性药剂师数量增加所引发的问题。兼职工作安排是使女性药剂师能够兼顾家庭和职业责任的一种策略。
