A STUDY ON THE FACTORS AFFECTING WORK LIFE BALANCE OF DUAL CAREER COUPLES

Abstract

Several decades ago there was a global social pattern where husbands were considered to be the breadwinners, whereas wives stayed at home and were mainly engaged in bringing up their children and doing household chores. However, this pattern has changed dramatically and irreversibly in global level in general. As a result, today both, husbands and wives have their own career aspirations and this has caused a range of implications for their families, as well as, organisations employing them. In this study let’s see about the various factors affecting the life and work of dual career couples
