Abstract
Labour is the very highest professional skill of all kinds. It can be considered as a technical term which is usually defined from economical consideration relating with any work manual or mental. Labour makes it possible to have our lives matter, to use our energy in ways that change our environment. Many people who truly enjoy their work would rather work than play. Women were regarded as the agents of change and the index of any society. Therefore, to accelerate economic development of the society, women must engage themselves in economic or gainful activities as distinct from household or non-market activity. For a full integration in economic development, they must enter the labour force. Women covered two-third of all the labour in the world. Though women covers majority of the work participation rate, they were paid less than men all over the world. However, whatever work they did in the formal sector was also considered as supplementary work. Therefore, if women's unpaid work were properly valued, it would be quite possible that women would emerge in most societies as the major breadwinners. So, ILO and State govt. has up various assistance and developmental programmes for the welfare of women labourers for engaging in certain gainful economic activities.
