In this article, a literature-based study has been made to know the reality of the women worker in our society. Women are the weaker section of the society since independence. But globally woman had vital role to produce, and new generation woman played crucial role in the society. It extremely important and high time to expansion the awareness of the lawful feature of womanhood impartiality in the globe of working sector or jobs in the 21stCentury, as women workers plays a very crucial role in each and everybody‟s lives. People should have the knowledge about legal rights and to oppose for a equitable stability of chance, behaviour towards rewarding the gap between the gender on terms of employment may be as reimburse and unresolved workers in terms of job aspects that is for taking any resolutions. But in many instances it is to be noted that still around the globe most of the labourers of the working sector are not known to their legal rights and in this matter they are far lack behind or loopholes for achieving and utilization of their legal rights. The legal rights of the workers especially to women are regarded as one of the most principal motives and objectives of the ILOs that is for prevailing satisfactory jobs, in terms of equality, equitable remuneration ad with self respect in the work place without any kind of discrimination. It has to make sure that womanhood‟s justice in equality and safety of women‟s in all organised and unorganised working sector is an important factor and goal for achieving equitable justice. The women of India constitute a significant part as an employee. In earlier days, women were only restricted to agricultural and non-agricultural day labourers in the rural areas. They were also uneducated during pre-colonial era. During ancient period women were not allowed to go outside the home. Some great and confident lady had come forward to fight against the British rule and as a freedom fighter of India. After independence, it has been found that women were gradually educated and also had come forward to take initiative as leader of the country and as activist to fight against illegal justice. Apart from their house, they have established an identity of their own in different areas of work and making outstanding performances with leading major sectors of the economy of the country. Since 1970‟s, the Government tried to bring them in the main stream through implementing various schemes and jobs that are run by women. Such as PHN, ANM, GNM, ICDS, SHG, ASHA, ANM etc. are exclusive women oriented job in India. Still most of the Indian adult women make an economic contribution in family as well as society but their work is not documented. This is because majority of women workforce is engaged in the unorganized sector which is not considered in Indian society. But not yet started the reservation system in education, employment (organised and unorganized sectors) only reservation has been started in three tier Panchayat election. It is conclude that as weaker section of the society the reservation policy should be started both education and employment. The women should not be insulted in any sectors of the society and finally some policy oriented measures would be advanced to encouragement of equal opportunities and to stop gender biases and safe guards women workers in the society for their rights |
