Abstract
Indian women perform many roles, ranging from homemaker to leader. Women today have developed skills and abilities as a result of being to their male partners and being homemakers. They have preserved the traditional work culture of family while also taking on new jobs. The banking industry is currently expanding at such a rapid rate that women must work longer hours to support their lifestyles and meet their basic needs. Despite the career advancement, women feel overloaded by work. According to the findings from this investigation, a significant number of bankers are under a lot of stress as a result of their jobs. While the causes of stress include long shifts, unsuitable reward structures, lack of worker self-governance, authoritative organizational culture, job struggle, among others, the most important reason is that management does not provide employees with enough support. Employees can see that there is a lot of pressure on them in different ways. Even though there may be no immediate signs, stress can cause serious health problems, like depression, heart problems, diabetes, and other conditions. Bankers’ health and relationships at home are also affected because most employees cannot spend time with their families or at home. Nevertheless, bankers’ levels of stress can be significantly reduced with effective management strategies.
