Abstract
The main purposes of the study were to analyse the gender participation among the workforce (teaching and administrative officer) in the universities, and compare the views of both gender from teachers and administrative officers about male and female participation. The study was descriptive in nature. A self-preparatory questionnaire was used to collect the data. Less than hundred university teachers and gazetted administrative staff from grade 17 and above were selected by using convenient sampling technique. A tool (section 2 part 3rd) in the toolkit of International Labour Organization (ILO) named GEMS was adapted. The tool was contextualised and the questionnaire was worked out and further modified before pilot testing. The results showed high reliability with alpha coefficient value 0.706. The obtained data were tabulated, analysed and interpreted by using descriptive as well as inferential statistics. The analyses revealed the gender participation among the workforce in universities. Hence it is concluded that there was gender participation at university level in Punjab.
