Abstract
In general, societal prejudice tends to limit the scope of women’s career choice and progression on the job. As such many women tend carefully follow the traditional expected pattern of acquiring sufficient basic and general education to be able to relate with their educated husbands, brother children and obtain employment compatible with their qualification, roles as tagged by the society. While it’s been noted that Nigerian women are willing acquire knowledge to participate and desired to be involved responsively in public administration. Hence, the study focused on the conflict in multiple roles of women which directly or indirectly hinders their career progression in the Nigerian civil service, and aims at identifying the implications of women gender roles on career progression of women bureaucrats in Nigeria. The research design suitable for this study is exploratory and descriptive.
