520 |a This book delves into the mental and occupational stress of pink-collar workers. A pink-collar worker is a person employed in a care-related profession or in an area that has traditionally been seen as the domain of women. Examples include jobs in the beauty business, nursing, social work, education, teaching, secretarial work, upholstery, or child care. To help with the financial burdens of their family, pink-collar workers engage in their job for at least 8 to 10 hours a day, which often leads to sacrificing their time with their family. Additionally, pink-collar works face many barriers like emotional labor (e.g., dealing with patients or clients), workload, interpersonal conflicts, and job insecurity. This book endeavors to study the physical stressors and mental stress of pink-collar workers so that new policies can be framed or suggested for the wellness of pink-collar workers
