Abstract: A fundamental discrimination against women exists internationally in terms of the involvement of women in the workplace and advanced positions. The gender gap is a major situation in the MENA region including Oman. Lots of factors permeate in generating the problem, such as social, cultural, and policies. However, it still ambiguous how these factors connect to foster a prominent gap between the two genders. And thus, women need to overcome many challenges to enjoy a good reception in the workplace compared to their male peers. This research investigates the preliminary feedbacks of qualitative studies conducted to explore the condition of women in the Public Sector in Oman. To complete this research, some previous studies that talked about this problem were read in the first place. The aspects that need more depth were identified. After that, a questionnaire was conducted to determine the size of the problem in the Sultanate of Oman. A sample was chosen to perform the questionnaire, and the sample was from OQ company due to its good reputation. The analysis detected that gender stereotyping and the workplace legislation that stratifies specifically to females have been the base reason for the gender gap in the labour market.
