  • Abstract:
  • This study looks at the parameters affecting women’s employment in Kerala at Edakkal caves, a popular tourist destination in India. This study provides an overview of the specific conditions faced by women working in cultural heritage sites. This study examines the existing literature on the disparities faced by working women in India, focusing on aspects such as inadequate family support, education, government support, social influence, religious support and finance. Using the data collected from 21 women entrepreneurs, the study investigates the influence of six key factors mentioned above, it was found that government support and religious beliefs significantly impact women's entrepreneurial pursuits at Edakkal Caves, while Family support, education, social impact, and access to finance do not show statistically significant effects. This study contributes to the understanding of women’s performance in a unique cultural context. By examining the case of the Edakkal quarries, the study provides valuable insights for policy makers and organizations seeking to support and empower women working in the tourism-driven economy.
