Özet:

 This research aims to interpret womens position in working life within the framework of gender and to reveal it in relation to the fields of economy, education, and public administration. Both qualitative and quantitative data were collected using a semi-structured interview form developed by the researcher after a review of the relevant literature. In the mixed design study, frequency analysis, and chi-square tests were applied. Of the study participants, 85.3 were female, and 16.5 were male, with the majority falling within the 20-29 age range 47. Regarding employment type, 21 were permanent, 35 were contracted, 4 were casual, and 39 were subcontracted. The research reveals significant correlations between gender and participation in the workforce, as well as the partners employment status, reasons for taking a break from work, and the tendency to leave the workforce. Additionally, the study found that a womans level of education has an inverse relationship with her husbands involvement in determining the allocation and expenditure of her earnings. Lastly, the economic findings demonstrate significant connections between gender and the primary source of income that satisfies an individuals needs and the reasons for pursuing paid employment.

 Bu araştırma, kadınların çalışma hayatındaki konumunu toplumsal cinsiyet çerçevesinde yorumlamayı ve ekonomi, eğitim ve kamu yönetimi alanlarıyla ilişkili olarak ortaya koymayı amaçlamaktadır. İlgili literatür taraması sonucunda araştırmacı tarafından geliştirilen yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formu ile hem nitel hem de nicel veriler toplanmıştır. Karma desenli çalışmada frekans analizi ve ki-kare testleri uygulanmıştır. Çalışmaya katılanların 85,3ü kadın, 16,5i erkektir ve çoğunluğu 20-29 yaş aralığındadır 47. İstihdam türüne bakıldığında, 21inin kadrolu, 35inin sözleşmeli, 4ünün yevmiyeli ve 39unun taşeron olduğu görülmektedir. Araştırma, cinsiyet ve işgücüne katılımın yanı sıra eşin çalışma durumu, işe ara verme nedenleri ve işgücünden ayrılma eğilimi arasında önemli ilişkiler olduğunu ortaya koymaktadır. Ayrıca çalışma, kadının eğitim seviyesinin, kazancının tahsisi ve harcanmasının belirlenmesinde kocasının katılımıyla ters bir ilişki içinde olduğunu ortaya koymuştur. Son olarak, ekonomik bulgular, cinsiyet ile bireyin ihtiyaçlarını karşılayan birincil gelir kaynağı ve ücretli istihdamı sürdürme nedenleri arasında önemli bağlantılar olduğunu göstermektedir.
