Definition(s)

  • The participation of women in the labor force is commonplace in today's society; however, the requirements of the workplace and the expectations of child care and housework puts women in a difficult position as they struggle to juggle both sets of demands. As a result, women are faced with work overload. [Source: Sociology of Work: An Encyclopedia; Work Overload]
