SOCIAL-SATISFACTION LEVEL OF WORKING AND NON-WORKING WOMEN

Abstract [English]

Women have always played a crucial role from the beginning of human civilisation to the present. The foundation of women's empowerment is the capacity to take advantage of opportunities to question accepted conventions and enhance one's life, and education offers precisely that merely because it provides women with the resources they require to transform their lives for the better. It influences not just our immediate and extended families, but also the next generation by opening up new avenues for growth and development. The level of social happiness felt by working women and unemployed women will be the focus of this study. This study has chosen to employ the normative survey approach as its methodology. The sample consists of 150 employed women and 150 jobless women from the Imphal East District of Manipur. George Joseph and Dr. (Mrs.) Promila Singh created the L-S Scale, a structured questionnaire for gauging life satisfaction. You can thank this questionnaire for helping with the data collection process. We used the percentage approach to look at how happy working women and non-working women were with society using the L-S Scale. Consequently, we looked at how happy women were in their social lives, both those who worked and those who did not. Achieving higher positions in the work market and having influence over decision-making bodies are both possible for women who have completed their schooling. Achieving scholastic success and financial stability allows women to adapt to their social environments, which in turn brings them a sense of fulfilment.
