Abstract
This article attempts to show the prevailing understanding of women's employment n Iranian society. Efforts to change the position of women in Iranian society began with the constitutionalism movement. The main focus was on compensating for the cultural backwardness of girls and women through education. This approach continued until Reza Shah of the Pahlavi dynasty, when women were assigned the task of working at home and raising children. After the fall of Reza Shah, women activists campaigned to change the role of women and have their rights recognized and restored. One example of such changes in the mentality of Iranian society was the issue of women's employment. This article addresses the question of how the elites of Iranian society understood women's work during this period, using the method of structural functionalism and paying special attention to the press. Of course, despite all efforts, the prevailing argument that women work at home and take the role of mother was not considered and, their economic role and employment was not emphasized.
