Work-family Interface in India

Economic liberalization in India has increased employment opportunities, particularly for women. Women have entered the paid work force in large numbers, leading to increasing numbers of dual-earner households. The results of such a shift on work-family balance have implications for one’s health situation, marital commitment and life satisfaction. This talk examines the ways in which the Frone model of work-family conflict works differently in the context of India, with the goal of designing interventions that will promote better quality of life.
