Abstract

Modern era is the era of science and technology where everyone is striving to shine in his/her field whether at home or at work place. In this modern era, stress has become a universal phenomenon. Women in India have proved their spirit in the work domain. Behind such success lies a big story of struggle and freedom in the traditional social arena. Besides, changing roles of working women, they have maintained the traditional work culture of household. Working women have a whole set of problems involving both family and professional life. Women have to play their role as a wife, a mother and an earner. For working women it is two sets of overlapping responsibilities. Therefore, in addition to their traditional roles, professional roles seem to be one of the major sources of stress that working women have to face.
