After the women took place as workers, the necessity of protecting the women in the worklife became important. The protection was firstly held by the international regulations. Regulations have been enacted to prevent the gender discrimination. These regulations contain provisions on various measures such as income inequality, the limitation of working hours, and types of work, which are not suitable for the female workers. Turkish Constitution states that the men and female workers have the equal rights, however the woman workers are granted by special rights in terms of working conditions.
Maternity in working life was reflected to the regulations also as motherhood; pregnancy and confinement. Each of these cases has led to the different regulations should be made for women in working life. All these processes are effective in women's recruitment, the organization of work, working conditions and termination of the employment contracts.
