Women Employment Impact on the Family

By Elizabeth Varghese

INTRODUCTION

Women's roles within families, both work and child care have varied a great deal

over time. In ancient days, most people lived on farms or in small villages.

The family was the basic economic and production unit. Family and other household

members worked together to produce goods for their own consumption, and at times

for the consumption of others. The most common employment for families was

agriculture.

Family agriculture meant much the same kind of work for women as it did for men.

While specific tasks might be gender-related, the idea that women were responsible

for a part of the family's economic well-being was common.
