In fact research also highlighted that there is a considerable increase in the number of female workforce during last decade but it has been also highlighted that most of the times females are opting those professions which are coherent with their attitudes and personalities like education and they have least acceptance in male dominated professions. Moreover their representation on top level positions is also in far and few between as there are several factors which are hindering in their way of career excellence. Thus there is a systematic need of investigation regarding those factors which are creating hindrance in the female career paths.
