While rating scale components were analyzed using mean and standard deviation to answer research questions 1-6.

The findings of the study revealed that the aggregate mean score of the research questions on occupational roles, household tasks, work schedule and coping strategies were above the agreement mean of 2.5 implying that they influence performance at home and workplace.
