Abstract

India is a country with diverse traditions and customs. Women for ages have been subjugated and subordinated in Indian societies. Women were made to believe that they have taken birth to do all household chores and men are made to earn for the family. The different religions like Hinduism, Islamism, and Jainism and so on proscribe women's freedom to undertake any job of women's choice. Therefore women were kept outside the purview of job market. The participation of women as workers and women's education was negligible. Indian women is distinct from their western counter parts in that they do not shed their conventional roles as mothers and house wives inspire of their professional responsibilities. They are skilled at blending professional excellence and traditional love for home harmoniously. This study to investigate the relationship between personal variables and job performance of women executives working in branch offices of Commercial Banks in Puducherry. As for banks all the three kinds of banks – public sector, private sector and new generation private sector commercial banks were surveyed. The conclusion has been given.
