Being Working Women in India: Problems and Challenges
India is a traditional country that collectively represents a mix of religions, cultures, customs and people. It is perceived that role of women in India is primarily household and limited to domestic chores. But over time, the requirement and needs of a family are changed. Increasing women's literacy, growing economic pressure, desires to gain economic and social independence, high cost of living and expenses on children's education are among few of the reasons that force a woman to step out from their home and take up a career or livelihood. Present study revolves around the urban women working across various sectors in twin cities i.e. Secunderabad and Hyderabad. The study also attempts to identify the numerous factors which creates hurdles for a female employee in climbing the ladder of success in their career path. This study's main objective is to understand the problems and challenges faced by working women in twin cities. The study is based on primary as well as secondary data collected from various sources. The study's findings conclude that most of the female employees agreed that they face lots of problems in balancing their personal and professional lives. However, they can balance work and family life with the help and support received from their organization and the family members. With this study an effort is made to throw some light on the real problems and challenges faced by the working women in twin cities.
