Description

Women experience life and work in a totally different way than men as can be observed from our day to day lives. Women tend to work both at office and at home. If the women is a parent then the work demands at home can be high. At offices too, they need to put on a professional, assertive disposition. However, the same cannot be said true if the woman is living with members of extended families than her own family. At home, the woman needs to don another set of attributes all together such as caring, obedience to elders and to the religion. The restrictions for men may not be this exaggerated. The women workers from the third world are prone to suffer more from this dualistic working nature at office and at home. The women in the developed world may not find the restrictions to the extent the women from third world feel because of the strong religious and social constraints on the women from third world countries. Therefore the work life balance equation may not completely represent the ethnic women from third world countries.
