Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Iranian men have five times more access to wage-earning jobs than women.

This is the finding of a survey by the Labor Ministry’s Center for Statistics and Strategic Information, published in the state-run media on January 23, 2018, revealing unequal access to wage-earning jobs for men and women.

According to this study done for the period spanning from March 2016 to March 2017, men’s share of wage-earning jobs was 82.7 per cent compared to women’s 17.3 per cent share. (The state-run Mehr news agency – January 23, 2018)

ABOUT US

NCRI Women Committee

We work extensively with Iranian women outside the country and maintain a permanent contact with women inside Iran. The Women’s Committee is actively involved with many women’s rights organizations and NGO’s and the Iranian diaspora.
The committee is a major source of much of the information received from inside Iran with regards to women. Attending UN Human Rights Council meetings and other international or regional conferences on women’s issues and engaging in a relentless battle against the Iranian regime’s misogyny are part of the activities of members and associates of the committee.
