In India, labour market is changing very rapidly. With this the workplace culture is also changing. The capitalist work culture is also affecting the socio-cultural status of Indians. At the capitalist workplace, employees are working like machine. The work culture is now marked by high payments, great perks and incentives as well as other facilities. However, the negative aspect of this culture is seen in long working hours, less family bonding, neglect of family responsibilities, difficulty in taking care of children, health issues at early age and increased stress and anxiety. There are several studies showing that capitalist work place is affecting not only the labour but also the culture market. It is creating difficulty in balancing work with family. The respective roles to be played within the workplace and the family has spill over each other. Work has entered the homes of several working people, who find it difficult to cope with the dual responsibility of work and family life. The present work is aimed at exploring the work family conflict faced by Indian working women in the current scenario. The first chapter focuses on working women and their family attitude with context to India, this is pseudo-patriarchal in modern sense, even though it is considered to be a sacrosanct institution. Family is a social institution and basic unit of society because it is a universal institution and it is available in each and every society but in their different forms. As sociologist George Peter Murdock examined the institution of the family in a wide range of societies. He claimed that some form of family exists in every society and concluded that the concept of family is universal. Murdock defines that “the family is a social group characterised by common residence, economic co-operation and reproduction. It includes adults of both sources, at least two of whom maintain a society approved sexual relationship, and one or more children, own or adopted, of the sexually co-habiting.”
