Women and work: issues and concerns

महिलाएँ और कार्य: मुद्दे एवं चिंताएँ

This Class 11 Home Science topic examines women’s participation in work, livelihoods and career choices. Students explore the difference between paid and unpaid work, the value of domestic and care work, gender-based division of labour, unequal wages, limited opportunities and occupational segregation. It also encourages discussion of how education, family responsibilities, social attitudes, workplace conditions and supportive policies influence women’s careers, economic independence and work–life balance.
