Work-Life Stress of Married Women among Arts and Science College Teachers in Madurai District
Main Article Content
Abstract
This research examines the stress management practices of married women teachers in Government Aided and Self-Financing Arts and Science Colleges within Madurai District. The study arises from the need to understand this issue's significance. While the Indian constitution grants equal rights to both men and women, women often have additional responsibilities that can lead to higher stress levels compared to men. Therefore, this research investigates the family and work-related factors contributing to stress, the resulting consequences, the roles and responsibilities of married women teachers, and potential solutions to alleviate this stress. A descriptive analytical research design was employed, with samples drawn through random selection from both types of colleges in the Madurai District, utilizing a simple random sampling method. Data were gathered using a structured questionnaire consisting of 56 questions related to the research inquiries. The findings will be beneficial for management and government entities by raising awareness about work-life stress among married women teachers and identifying its root cause.
