Abstract/Summary
It has been said that a country's quality of legislation is the hallmark of the nation's sense of justice. It is the quintessential part of answering to and redressing issues in the government. On the other hand, human rights are the trademark of civilization, the abrasive shift that provides the distinction between our needs to merely survive, and our vision to live better lives.
Since the international ratification of the night work prohibition for women, burning controversies started to ignite. Gender discrimination was subtly shown in the Philippine labor legislations. Despite of the historical involvement of women since the mind 1900s, the legislative area remained an open ground where the women are generally marginalized, if not, completely excluded.
This paper, using an interdisciplinary approach, seeks to tackle the economic, psychological, and psychological facets of the night work prohibition for women, a provision that stirs national and international sense of justice, in understanding underlying presumptions bounded by it.
