This paper identifies a number of factors that are blocking women's entry into the challenging and rewarding employment of His Majesty's Government (HMG). Household and social obligations, institutional apathy towards gender mainstreaming, patriarchal social structure, male biased socialization of the children, unfriendly towards women etc. are few among them. The paper also suggests recommendations to enhance employment opportunities and promotion prospects for women in the Nepalese Civil Service. - Reproduced.  aWomen in the civil service  aAdministration and Management Review  a63294  c63294d63294  00104070aIIPAbIIPAd2018-07-19hVolume no: 16, Issue no: 2pAR63744r2018-07-19w2018-07-19yAR
