The present study investigated differences in job satisfaction, interpersonal values, and perceptions of organizational climate between "breadwinning" and non-breadwinning married working women in a private sector organization. The data suggested that the breadwinners were significantly more satisfied with their pay and their opportunities for promotion and that they perceived a more favorable reward system in the organization. The results suggest that the family status of employees may be a variable important in accounting for variance in organizational behavior and for identifying issues particularly salient to female employees
