Women working in Public Sector companies and banks are more satisfied than their counterparts in Private sector. This is the finding of survey conducted by ASSOCHAM.
"While working women in India find highest levels of job satisfaction in public sector undertakings, it is measured seven at the scale of ten. Females engaged in BPO/KPO sector are least satisfied from their current jobs that averaged to 4 on scale of ten," industry body Assocham said in a statement.
Out of the 773 working women participated in the survey, majority said that they would like to do jobs in PSUs.
Majority of working women gave priority to PSU sectors like banking, power and petroleum emphasising that these (sectors) provide satisfying nature of work.
Participants say that Public Sector Companies and Banks offer reasonably good annual income with job security, convenient working hours and besides healthy work environment.
While, women employed in BPO/KPO feel lack of personal growth and development as they perceived less room in decision making process, no flexibility in work timings and lot of pressure to achieve targets, it said.
The study also said that working women in the sectors like agro-based industries, economic and social organisation, hospitality, IT, media and entertainment were also not satisfied.
"In all these sectors, the satisfaction levels hovers around close to a scale of 4," the survey said.
