What was a consequence for women who held jobs during the Weimar Republic when Hitler rose to power?

During the Weimar Republic, women increasingly participated in the workforce, enjoying some level of independence and employment opportunities. However, when Hitler and the Nazi regime came to power in 1933, a significant shift in policy occurred. The Nazis promoted traditional gender roles, emphasizing the ideal of women as homemakers and mothers, and sought to reduce their involvement in the workforce.

As part of these policies, many women who held jobs were dismissed. The regime propagated the notion that women should focus on family life and child-rearing rather than employment outside the home. Consequently, many women who had previously worked in various sectors were laid off, leading to a substantial decline in female employment. This enforcement of traditional roles had lasting implications for women in German society during this period, as the Nazi regime sought to reinforce its ideals through restrictive policies.
