Stress Among Working Women

Abstract

The modern world, which is said to be a world of achievements, is also a world of stress. Nowadays, stress is a common feature in everyone s life. It is becoming a major issue and a matter of concern for the employees and the organizations. Working women are more affected as compared to their male counterparts, as their life becomes complex in order to maintain balance between home as well as work, so it becomes impossible to avoid stress. It is becoming difficult that they play the role of a perfect housewife, mother and working women at the same time. Many factors are involved in causing stress among working women at home or at workplace. Policies should originate in favour of working women to encourage them and to support them by providing a friendly, stress-free environment.
