Abstract EN

Most studies and research have tried to shed light on unemployment and employment in general, with less focus on the problems facing working women and the resulting social and economic consequences that threaten their human and professional lives.

For women, working is one of the basic necessities for the sustainability of human life, and it constitutes an essential axis for both sexes and through it.

It also gives a person the status and social status where the individual finds a ready opportunity to practice his intentions and desires, test his abilities and talents, and achieve his ambitions.

The availability of full employment in general and the joining of women to the labor market is an important and fundamental factor in the sustainability of development.

However, this contribution faces a series of obstacles due to the cultural environment and the social determinants that women face in Iraqi society, especially in the field of work in the informal sector, where society imposes strict restrictions on the quality and place of work.

This study sought to shed light on the most important obstacles facing the employment of women in the labor market (the mall) and the multiplication of marginalization cases and their exclusion from their effective and important role in the development process, as well as other factors such as discrimination based on sex or gender with the denial of education, which led reduced the opportunities for participation in the labor market.

The study used the social survey method, during which a random sample of (50) respondents was selected.

The study reached a set of scientific results where the results of the descriptive analysis revealed that financial need drives women to work in malls, and that the lack of suitable job opportunities drives women to work in malls.

Social values and customs also contribute in determining opportunities for women to participate in the labor market, in addition to the educational levels of the respondents.
