Abstract

The present study highlights the job satisfaction of indigenous women who work at the beauty parlors in Bangladesh. The study consists of 240 sample indigenous women workers of different beauty parlors situated in six divisional towns of Bangladesh. Judgment sampling technique was used to select the stated sample. A structured interview form was used to collect data from the indigenous women beauty parlor workers by using 27 factors to measure their job satisfaction. The study found that six factors which are ‘the salary/wage paid by the beauty parlor is satisfactory’, ‘the beauty parlor authority provides money for sickness’, ‘there is no risk of sexual harassments while you are at the parlor’, ‘working condition like space, air, toilet etc. at the parlor is satisfactory’, ‘you do not being looked down by the employer/customers because you are a indigenous’ and ‘the beauty parlor authority allows to take leave during religious festival’ are significantly and positively correlated.
