Abstract


India is a country with diverse traditions and customs. Liberalization Globalization and Privatization (LPG) of the Indian economy has thrown up considerable employment opportunities for those, including women, who possess marketable skills and talent. Historically, majority of women employees in India have not attained a good status in workplace settings whether in managerial or operative roles. This traditional positioning of women has restricted the intensity of their efforts towards realizing the benefits of the globalisation process. Indian women is distinct from their western counter parts in that they do not shed their conventional roles as mothers and house wives inspire of their professional responsibilities. They are skilled at blending professional excellence and traditional love for home harmoniously. In the process of balancing work and home life, they encounter a plethora of problems. The study is purely exploratory in nature and seeks to identify the factors preventing women employees from aspiring for higher post and problems hindering the work performance of women executives in private sector banks in Pondicherry. Further this aims also at finding out the organizational support for women employees to achieve better work performance. The conclusion has been given.
