This paper is an attempt to determine the factors which effect the decision of married women to participate in the labor force. We found that education of the respondent, number of off springs, number of dependents, family size, income of husband, monthly expenditures of the family, positive attitude of husband and family towards the job of women, job satisfaction, have a positive impact on the labor force participation of married women. While age of the respondent, living with husband, strong relationship with spouse before marriage, satisfaction of house wives with their current life, restrictions from family regarding job, other earners in the family negatively affect the decision of married women to participate in the labor force. Rate of inflation prevailing in the economy of a country largely effect the labor force participation of married women
