Abstract

Working women are no longer a rarity but are accepted as a part of the workforce. Indian organizations have experienced a steady increase in the number of women employees and this pattern is expected to continue in the future as well. Traditional sex roles suggest that women should behave in a ‘feminine’ manner, and that men should behave in a ‘masculine’ manner. These sex roles have profound impact on the relations between women and men in our society in all spheres of life – in the family, educational system, and work place, and in both management and non-management ranks within the workplace.
