“…Several authors have highlighted that forces limiting the mobilisation of law by women exist at different levels (Bumiller, 1992; Nielsen, 2004). As Hatıpoğlu-Aydın and Aydın (2016) explain, male officers may also play a role in hampering women's access to justice. This could also be a factor in the case of the AOB, where all three ombudspersons are currently men 11…”

“…With regard to harassment, for instance, women often report believing that they should have been able to control the situation themselves or that their situation cannot be addressed by the law (Bumiller, 1992; Nielsen, 2004). At a more general level, Hatıpoğlu-Aydın and Aydın (2016) point out that the ostensibly neutral formulation or even overtly male-oriented formulation of legal regulations may eventually end up working against women due to the different life experiences of men and women. According to Mossman (1994), the gender-neutral language of law tends to conceal sexist preferences.…”

“…Also, the feminisation of poverty and the public/private dilemma – women are more often confronted with problems that are considered ‘private’ matters – may play a role in reduced access to civil justice for women. Hatıpoğlu-Aydın and Aydın (2016) contend that male police officers, judges and prosecutors also contribute to hampering women's access to justice. However, these studies mainly concern access to civil justice.…”

While access to civil-law institutions has been a traditional area of socio-legal research, access to administrative justice still constitutes an underresearched field. In the field of administrative law, public ombuds institutions represent an important pathway to resolve disputes without invoking a court. To date, we have little knowledge about who uses these ombuds institutions and which factors facilitate access to the ombuds. In this paper, on the basis of our survey among users of the Austrian Ombudsman Board (n = 8,274), we explore the effects of institutional design on the user population. The findings suggest that the two outreach measures – regular consultation days and a weekly TV broadcast – contribute to reducing existing inequalities with regard to users’ sociodemographic characteristics.

“…The issue of poverty and the lack of experience of women to gain access to the law is one of the factors that women lack protection and respect [3]. Legal protection is the main factor needed for women who experience discrimination as a form of demanding justice, but this does not always work in accordance with applicable laws.…”

S. Rendra and the novel Maria Zaitun by Joko Santoso. Researchers use the theory of feminism and intertextual.

“…To overcome these barriers, effort must be directed to altering perceptions of organizational power and equal access to promotion (Loo & Thorpe, 1998). This situation is not only seen in the health sector but also experienced in many areas like judicial system in Turkey (Hatipoglu Aydın & Aydın, 2016).…”

The purpose of the study was to examine differences in sexual harassment attitudes between male and female labor force in health care organizations. A total of 571 employees working in various health care organizations in Turkey participated in the study. Sexual harassment was measured using 22 items and three-factor structure with constructs “Provocative Behavior,” “Normal Flirtations,” and “Trivial Matter” developed by Turgut. The data were collected using percentage, frequency, mean, standard deviation, independent sample t tests, and multivariate analysis of variance and covariance (MANOVA and MANCOVA). The results of the study revealed that a significant gender difference exists in sexual harassment attitudes with respect to “Provocative Behavior” and “Normal Flirtations” factors, while “Trivial Matter” factor was not statistically significant at the probability level of .05 as part of the sexual harassment scale. After controlling for variables such as age, marital status, monthly income level, education level, profession, institution, length of working time in the organization, and length of time in the health care sector; it was seen that most gender differences remained significant.
