Achieving Work Family Balance (WFB) among Professional Working Women

Interesting book on working women in Mauritius.. Given the nature of its patriarchal society, it is widely accepted that Mauritian women should play an active role in the professional world while still handling family matters without jeopardising the family equilibrium. Most common challenges faced by working women in Mauritius are stress and fatigue, low support systems, time management issues, childcare issue, and their work schedule. Professional women feel burdened by coincident demands of their career aspirations and the traditional way of life. A must to read!
