Women In Indian Industry

In the wake of UN?s declaration of the women?s decade in 1975 numerous studies on women were conducted around the world. Various scholars in India carried out research on women?s education, modernisation, family, divorce etc. However, women who are now entering the world of work in greater numbers have not received adequate attention. This book tries to fill in the lacunae in an important sphere: the employment of women in the industrial sector. Women until recently were not allowed to enter the industrial employment sector. They have now made a niche for themselves in the electronic industry due to dexterity of their nimble fingers and their patience at repreatative jobs. This book describes the women?s two worlds-work in industry and life at home. It highlights the style of women?s specially in electronic industry. A pioneering work of this nature is likely to prove highly useful to industrial and business executives, economic planners and the plethora of commissions and committees which are appointed from time to time for ameliorating the economic lot of women.
