Gender roles dichotomy generally places women in the domestic area. However, it is common for women to engage in activities that support family income by working in the public sphere; thus they have multiple roles. This study aims to describe the multiple roles among female traders in Tengger. This research was conducted using a qualitative case study model. Data collection was carried out through interviews, observation, and a secondary data collection. This research found that women in Tengger have multiple roles by working in the informal sector such as trading and farming; while at the same  they still carry out their role as housewives. This multiple role enables them to master time management skills as well as  skills in prioritizing activities.
