Publication Job satisfaction, role overload and gender in Turkey(İstanbul Üniversitesi, Metodoloji ve Sosyoloji Araştırma Merkezi, 2011-01-01) Bozkurt, Veysel; Aytaç, Serpil; Bondy, Jules; Emirgil, Burak Faik; AYTAÇ, SEVİNÇ SERPİL; EMİRGİL, BURAK FAİK; Uludağ Üniversitesi; I-7814-2019; ETB-1123-2022Job satisfaction is widely studied in academic literature but there are still limited studies about the relationship between job satisfaction with the role overload in Turkey, especially in the context of gender.Working women's lives in contemporary Turkey are divided between home and work.Women are faced with a wide range of competing demands like being in paid employment, familial duties as wives and mothers, and other gendered roles and tasks more broadly within the community.The industrial manufacturing sector is expanding very quickly in Turkey which is associated with increased levels of women's participation in the labour market. At the same time, Turkish society continues to be structured so that men are over-represented in management and leadership positions in the workforce even in professionalised areas requiring university degrees.This study investigated the levels of job satisfaction and role overload among professional women in Turkey and hypotheses that because of gender role stereotyping women have less job satisfaction and more role overload than men have. In addition, we assumed that role overload is negatively correlated with job satisfaction in this study.
