awareness variables. A random sample of 36 teachers from three most famous
private schools out of 39 private schools in three talukas of district Matiari was
analyzed through survey method. Descriptive statistics for the demographic
data, while ANOVA and Chi-square tests were used for analysis of the
questionnaires. The findings revealed that female teachers are experiencing
excessive demands at both work and home, which is likely to have detrimental
