During menopause, many women experience increased anxiety. Anxiety can often occur together with depression. While the precise connection between anxiety and menopause remains unclear, a sophisticated combination of things common during this transitional time during a woman’s life may contribute during this study to assess and compare the anxiety level among working and non-working women under postmenopausal stages. For choosing sample Purposive sampling Techniques was used. 60 menopausal women were selected from Jaipur. The sample was consisting of 30 working and 30 non-working post-menopausal women, age between 45 years to 55 years. Anxiety, Depression and Stress Scale was developed by Pallavi Bhatnagar and her colleagues. The information was subjected to statistical analysis pertinent to research objectives. The information is analysis by appropriate statistical procedure. There was significant difference observed between the mean values of hysteria among working and non-working postmenopausal women reflecting the twin work enhancing anxiety among working women. The high anxiety found among working women could also be thanks to their dual work, time constraint and target achievement at work place. Low to normal anxiety found in non-working women could also be because of no time pressure and no dual work. They can plan their day’s activity at their own convenience and can even postpone a number of the task which is non-essential.
