Abstract
This study draws on gender issues relating to the employment and family responsibilities of
Thai working women in order to better understand their management of these. The study thus
attempts to address key gaps in the literature through a consideration of women’s careers, the
social structure in Thailand, Thai women in the labour market, equal treatment according to
merit and respondents’ experiences of being working mothers. This research thereby
contributes to the research on employment and the family responsibilities of Thai working
women. Thus, the study is not only an examination of gender issues in relation to
employment and family responsibilities, but the data collected also enables the generation of
interesting new hypotheses derived from the narratives provided by women concerning the
impact of these dual spheres. Moreover, this study contributes to the wider literature on
gender by seeking to explore the role of working mothers as a complex aspect of women’s
experiences.
