With this the workplace culture is also changing. The capitalist work culture is also affecting the socio-cultural status of Indians. At the capitalist workplace, employees are working like machine. The work culture is now marked by high payments, great perks and incentives as well as other facilities. However, the negative aspect of this culture is seen in long working hours, less family bonding, neglect of family responsibilities, difficulty in taking care of children, health issues at early age and increased stress and anxiety. There are several studies showing that capitalist work place is affecting not only the labour but also the culture market. It is creating difficulty in balancing work with family. The respective roles to be played within the workplace and the family has spill over each other. Work has entered the homes of several working people, who find it difficult to cope with the dual responsibility of work and family life.
