Economic activities undertaken by humans define the pace and stages of growth in any region or nation. In industrialised nations, a significant fraction of the working population is engaged in tertiary economic activities, and both men and women are vital to the nation's economic development. Given the complexity of the factors influencing female Workforce force participation (growth, education, fertility, and the cultural and normative context of society), a large body of research has developed on the nature of female Workforce force participation and its relationship to economic growth and development. Differences in economic development, educational attainment, fertility rates, the availability of childcare and other supporting services, and, ultimately, cultural norms are reflected in the varying levels of female labour market participation among countries. The sluggish growth of female labour force participation in South Asia presents a number of problems. In spite of tremendous economic progress and rising wages/incomes, the most notable trend is the fall in female labour force participation in Haryana, India, especially in rural areas.
