Case Analysis Read the following case carefully and answer the questions given at the end of the case. Much of the literature implies that a significant feature of the dual-career life-style is that it produces considerable stress and strain. Study of the dual-career family is a relatively new research area, having its genesis in the late 1960s Dual-career couples are those where both the husband and wife of the family pursue careers that require a high degree of commitment, special training, with a continuous developmental nature adding to increasing degrees of responsibility. Changing role of women, however, created some constraints to the existing lifestyle, which might be explained by the fact that it is a relatively new and minority pattern. From a societal point of view, dual career couples in Nepal especially those with young children, frequently feel overwhelmed by their lifestyle. The external demands of the workplace, children's needs, and household responsibilities compete for limited time, creating obvious stress on the dual career couple. Work life balance refers to the achievement of equilibrium between an employee's primary priorities of his/her employment position and private life style. It is equally important for both male and female employees in modern organization today. However, it is very important for female employee because of their households responsibilities other than organizational responsibilities. Many studies have examined the role of female employees in management by evaluating the work done on equality, differences and stereotyping. Previous researches also suggest that, the problems of the working women, who are a significant part of a dual career couple, may include lack of flexibility in the workplace, lack of family- friendly workplace policies, parent-track policies, male-trailing spouses, career versus relationship and child bearing conflicts. Absence of female role models and inadequate number of female members at the top ranks add to the disadvantages. Nowadays, social structure is more open and progressive in providing equal opportunities to male and female employees in Nepalese organizations. The interim constitution of Nepal has also provided wider scope for female in terms of opportunities and equalities in the fields like education, jobs, politics etc. Educated females are entering into jobs, educations and industries. Thus, many dual career couples are working in the Nepalese organizations. It has become a challenging for female employees because of their family responsibilities in country like ours. Besides, low career jobs are provided to the female employees because there is still wrong notions towards female employees like females are not competent enough as compared to male. Female employees still heavily rely on their family support to manage and balance their work life and family life too. Organizations are becoming more sensitive towards the needs of female employees and make systematic policy changes to help them in maintaining balance between their professional and personal life. However, many things have yet to be done to cater the needs of female employees by the Nepalese organizations. Thus, new policies need to be formulated and properly implemented to meet the need of female employees in the Nepalese organizations. Answer the following issues: a) What are research problems in this case? b) Formulate atleast three hypotheses for the study. c) What research design would you follow to undertake the research as explained in the case? d) Which sampling technique can be used to collect data for the research? Why? e) State the statistical tools for data analysis too. f) If your research findings reveal that Nepalese employees' work life balance is poor, what do you suggest to improve the conditions in the future
