This discrimination prevents women and men from having equal opportunities in social, economic and political spheres and forces both sexes to act within certain stereotypes. Women often find it difficult to reach top positions in the world of work and are forced to take on a greater share of responsibilities such as housework and childcare. Women may be paid less than men for the same work. This is recognised as gender pay discrimination. Women have less access to opportunities for promotion to management positions than men. This is known as the glass ceiling effect. Discrimination against women is also visible in TV series. Women are exposed to various forms of discrimination in the labour world. Women may be paid less than men doing the same job. This is defined as gender-based wage discrimination. Women have less access to opportunities for promotion to management positions than men. This is known as the glass ceiling effect. Discrimination against women is also a visible subject in TV series. The majority of TV series broadcasts can affect individuals in society, resulting in specific behavioural changes. TV programmes also reflect socially accepted norms depicted on screen. This study aims to analyze "Glass Ceilings", a television series, by scrutinizing its scenes and the dialogue spoken by its main characters to understand women's position in society and working life. The working life experiences of Leyla, the main female protagonist in the television series, were examined. Content analysis was applied in the research. The analysis in this study focuses on the eight-episode series that premiered on 9th June 2021. Among the themes that emerged in the analysis are; metaphors, symbols, cynicism, hypocrisy, stereotypes, individualism, patriarchy, inequality, and mobbing. The research has provided insights into the challenges experienced by women.
