Answer:

Women are the backbone of any economy primarily shaping future of the country.

She who earlier stayed at home to attend her domestic duties is now maintaining

work and home simultaneously, participating in the process of economic

development on an equal footing with men.

The Government of India, MEETING a longstanding demand for GENDER parity in the

workforce, has approved an amendment in The Factories Act 1948 to allow women

employees to work in nightshifts. The amendment suggests that nightshift for

women shall be allowed only if the employer ensures safety, adequate safeguards in

the factory as regards occupational safety and health, equal opportunity for women

workers, adequate PROTECTION of their dignity, honour and transportation from the

factory premises to the nearest point of their residence are met.

The study is an attempt to find the impact nightshifts has on women and the

opportunities for growth that are offered them by the various sectors. ASSOCHAM

believes that favourable conditions of work for women in terms of security,

monetary compensation and provision of fringe benefits are necessary for

nightshifts to be successful and socially acceptable.

We are extremely grateful to Chairperson - Dr. Girija Vyas and officials of the

National Commission for Women for their constant interest and in giving us this

opportunity to conduct and partner the study. We hope this report WOULD be an

interesting read.
