The aim of this thesis is firstly to analyze the contribution of women et work in the ivory coast and secondly, to evaluate the consequences of their working status on their married life. Two major periods brought on significant charges in the employment of women in the ivory coast. These vears beetween 1946 and 1964, and 1964 and 1983, leading to more political charges than a radical restructurating of society. Namely, the abolition of froced labour (5 april 1946), the enforcement of the civil code in 1964 and the making of new laws concerning the population and more specifically women in 1983. In the first part of our work, we evaluate the degree of integration of women in the urban economy of the ivory coast. Traditional view regarding the place of women in society and the poor schooling received by girls do of course hinder this process. In the second part, we examine the legislator's standpoint as reflected by the labour laws which stipulate that "women are entitled to work professionally without their husband's consent", and the reality.
